View Work Let’s Startup the Conversation Blog Feed Announcing Dynatable.js 2013 Dec 10 We’ve been quietly building a jQuery plugin over the past couple years to help make tabular data more interactive.

JSON-parsing YAML Vulnerability in Rails (and bonus patch for 2.2.x) 2013 Feb 05 This exploit is similar to the XML vulnerability explained in our last post. This exploit, however, is in the JSON parsing of Rails 2.3.x and 3.0.x, due to the fact that the built-in JSON parser in those versions of Rails delegated a lot of its logic to the YAML parser. The exploit and official patches were announced here on the official RoR Security mailing list.
