CVE-2026-54901: Oj: Use-After-Free in Oj::Parser array_class/hash_class GC Marking

June 19, 2026

Oj::Parser in usual mode does not mark array_class and hash_class references during garbage collection. If GC runs after the class is assigned but before a parse, the class object is reclaimed, leaving the parser holding a dangling VALUE. The subsequent parse call dereferences the freed object, producing a segfault.
