Hi Renan,

Thanks for looking into this. Your rationale of not packaging the latest
release makes sense to me. I did a quick skimming of the changelog
between v2.9.1 and v2.13.2 and found two fixed issues that are somewhat
concerning, especially [2]:

[1] Fix a potential crash in large negative floating point number generation 
Release: v2.12.1
Commit: 
https://github.com/ruby/json/commit/d73ae93d3cf7f58a83d4aef4392f48c4de8c11a5

[2] Fix a potential crash in the C extension parser.
Release: v2.10.2
Commit: 
https://github.com/ruby/json/commit/cf242d89a0523bacd5238a59c77b33411b8c3208

[2] fixes an out-of-bound write for malformed utf-8 sequences. Do you
think not including this will have security implications?
