Package : libdbi-perl
Version : 1.643-4+deb12u3
CVE ID : CVE-2026-78030 CVE-2026-88815 CVE-2026-88816
Debian Bug : 1149042
Vulnerabilities were discovered in libdbi-perl, the Perl Database
Interface (DBI), which may lead to memory corruption, denial of service,
or arbitrary module load.
CVE-2026-78030
Harsh Raj Singhania discovered that an attacker able to choose DSN
fragments or request parameter can trigger arbitrary module load due
to the lack of connect attribute validation.
CVE-2026-88815
Harsh Raj Singhania discovered that sql_type_cast_svpv() incorrectly
treats numeric values as strings, which may lead to application
crash.
CVE-2026-88816
Harsh Raj Singhania discovered that FetchHashKeyName incorrectly
treats numeric values as strings, which may lead to application
crash.
For Debian 12 bookworm, these problems have been fixed in version
1.643-4+deb12u3.
