Nokogiri (鋸) makes it easy and painless to work with XML and HTML from Ruby. It provides a
sensible, easy-to-understand API for reading, writing, modifying, and querying documents. It is
fast and standards-compliant by relying on native parsers like libxml2 (C) and xerces (Java).
Nokogiri is an open source XML and HTML library for Ruby. Nokogiri prior to version 1.13.6 does not type-check all inputs into the XML and HTML4 SAX parsers, allowing specially crafted untrusted inputs to cause illegal memory access errors (segfault) or reads from unrelated memory. Version 1.13.6 contains a patch for this issue. As a workaround, ensure the untrusted input is a `String` by calling `#to_s` or equivalent.
