      "value": "websocket-driver is a WebSocket protocol handler with pluggable I/O. Prior to 0.8.1, draft versions of the WebSocket protocol in websocket-driver include a length header that allows an arbitrarily large integer to be encoded as bytes with the high bit set, and a server or client can send an indefinite sequence of 0x80 or higher bytes that the peer parses into an ever-growing Ruby integer. This can make a WebSocket connection consume an unbounded amount of memory and lead to the host process running out of memory. This issue is fixed in version 0.8.1."

      "value": "websocket-driver es un gestor del protocolo WebSocket con E/S conectable. Antes de la versión 0.8.1, las versiones preliminares del protocolo WebSocket en websocket-driver incluyen una cabecera de longitud que permite que un entero arbitrariamente grande sea codificado como bytes con el bit más significativo activado, y un servidor o cliente puede enviar una secuencia indefinida de bytes 0x80 o superiores que el par analiza en un entero Ruby en constante crecimiento. Esto puede hacer que una conexión WebSocket consuma una cantidad ilimitada de memoria y provocar que el proceso anfitrión se quede sin memoria. Este problema está solucionado en la versión 0.8.1."
