"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-126152 advisory.
DBI versions before 1.652 for Perl allow a heap out-of-bounds write via an unvalidated numeric placeholder
that sets the binder counter in preparse.
preparse reserves seven output bytes per input byte, the width of the longest ':p99999' expansion. The
':N' branch parses the number with `atoi(src)` and assigns it to the binder counter with no range check,
so a statement containing ':2147483648' leaves the counter negative (-2147483648 with glibc, where atoi
wraps). Each following '?' then expands through `sprintf(start, :p%d, idx++)` to ':p-2147483648', 14
bytes with the terminating NUL where the buffer budgets 7. The placeholder limit added in 1.650 tests the
counter against 99,999, which a negative counter passes.
Any caller that preparses an untrusted statement into ':pN' style placeholders gets a heap out-of-bounds
write that grows with the number of '?' marks following the poisoned placeholder. The '?' and '%s' return
styles compare the parsed number against the expected sequence and error out, and are unaffected.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
