    Perl is a high-level programming language with roots in C, sed, awk and shell scripting. Perl is good at
    handling processes and files, and is especially good at handling text. Perl's hallmarks are practicality
    and efficiency. While it is used to do a lot of different things, Perl's most common applications are
    system administration utilities and web programming. A large proportion of the CGI scripts on the web are
    written in Perl. You need the perl package installed on your system so that your system can handle Perl
    scripts.
    Install this package if you want to program in Perl or enable your system to handle Perl scripts.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2008-5302
    Race condition in the rmtree function in File::Path 1.08 and 2.07 (lib/File/Path.pm) in Perl 5.8.8 and
    5.10.0 allows local users to create arbitrary setuid binaries via a symlink attack, a different
    vulnerability than CVE-2005-0448, CVE-2004-0452, and CVE-2008-2827. NOTE: this is a regression error
    related to CVE-2005-0448. It is different from CVE-2008-5303 due to affected versions

    CVE-2010-1447
    PostgreSQL 7.4 before 7.4.29, 8.0 before 8.0.25, 8.1 before 8.1.21, 8.2 before 8.2.17, 8.3 before 8.3.11,
