Section 5 says:

<end of section>

It should say:

Since -0 is a valid JSON Number but is serialized as 0, a JSON
parser following this specification SHOULD generate an error
condition (which in turn SHOULD stop processing) when it
encounters -0, in order to thwart potential attacks on not yet
parsed data. 

Notes:

IEEE 754 includes as distinct values both positive and negative
zero. Section 7.1.12.1 of ECMA-262 says: If m is +0 or -0, return
the String "0". This may lend itself to erroneous input to
supporting functions.
