Ruby OpenSSL DoS Vulnerability

The decode method in the OpenSSL::ASN1 module in Ruby before 2.2.8, 2.3.x before 2.3.5, and 2.4.x through 2.4.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (interpreter crash) via a crafted string. The openssl gem that contains this module is patched in version 2.0.0.
