+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could trigger the vulnerability through an
+    exposed Ruby web application and cause the server to use unnecessary
+    CPU resources, potentially resulting in a Denial of Service.

+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
