Bump json to patched version, fixing CVE-2026-54696 (v2.2.1) - #130
Merged
Conversation
json 2.9.0 through 2.19.8 has a heap buffer overflow when the generator streams an object containing a large string to an IO (GHSA-x2f5-4prf-w687). Raise the gemspec's minimum json constraint to the patched 2.19.9 and update Gemfile.lock accordingly (resolves to 2.21.1). The existing `~> 2.0` upper bound already permitted this version, so no constraint widening was needed.
Prepares the 2.2.1 patch release: bumps Tree::VERSION, updates the self-referential Gemfile.lock entry, adds the History.md release note for the json CVE-2026-54696 fix, and refreshes the copyright year range.

master'sGemfile.lockwas resolvingjson (2.9.1), which falls in the vulnerable range (2.9.0-2.19.8). The gemspec's existing~> 2.0upper bound already permitted the patched version, so no constraint widening was needed — just a lower-bound bump and abundle update json.This is intended as the first real end-to-end test of the trusted-publishing release workflow added in #129: once merged, we'll tag
