nokogiri version 1.7.1 has been released.
This is a security update based on 1.7.0.1, addressing two upstream libxml 2.9.4 vulnerabilities classified as "Medium" by Canonical, and CVSS3 score of "5.3 Medium" by RedHat.
These patches only apply when using Nokogiri's vendored libxml2 package. If you're using your distro's system libraries, there's no need to upgrade from 1.7.0.1 at this time.
