Been trying to debug a crash for the past 10 hours and finally, I simplified it to this code:
NSError *error = nil;
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"payload" ofType:@"txt"]];
id obj = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:NSJSONReadingMutableContainers error:&error];
With NSZombieEnabled, this crashes the app at the third line (where the parsing happens) and it logs:
*** -[CFString retain]: message sent to deallocated instance 0x758afa0
The contents of payload.txt are:

It's just an array of 2 dictionaries. I am not sure what's causing this crash/what's wrong with this JSON.
UPDATE Removing "is_subscribed":0 in the first object in the array gets rid of the crash.
It looks like Apple did a bad work in error handling of such cases within their class, since your getting crash instead of normal nil result and error variable populated. Your json data and minimalistic code is what Apple usually require for a proper bug report. Report the bug by following link - https://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/ do not forget to attach project in zip as a proof that it crashes.
I had this issue and for me, the issue was a duplicate key in the JSON. My key was named differently - not "is_subscribed" like in your case, but "food_nutrients". I'm willing to bet that iOS 6 crashes on any duplicate keys where there's another key in between - not just an "is_subscribed" key as some of the comments suggest.
I've confirmed that duplicate keys of any name are the issue. Related: https://stackoverflow.com/a/21148319/2030
