What is CVE-2022-32511?

The JMESPath for Ruby library, prior to version 1.6.1, incorrectly utilizes JSON.load instead of the safer JSON.parse method. This can lead to potential security issues, as JSON.load can execute arbitrary code if the input is crafted maliciously. It is recommended that users upgrade to version 1.6.1 or later to mitigate these risks and ensure safer handling of JSON data.
