Release 1.56 of BC fixes 10 different vulnerabilities which all have CVEs.

Threat varies from 3.0 to 7.5 being the highest according to Sonatype.

JRuby 1.7.27 shades the bouncycastle library (v1.55), so it is hard to override with a newer version.

JRuby does not shade BC. BC is part of jruby-openssl thus you should update the gem (latest uses 1.56 already). there likely wont be more 1.7 releases thus this should be the preferred option.
