[SECURITY] Fedora 44 Update: perl-Crypt-PBKDF2-0.261630-1.fc44

PBKDF2 is a secure password hashing algorithm that uses the techniques of "key strengthening" to make the complexity of a brute-force attack arbitrarily hig h. PBKDF2 uses any other cryptographic hash or cipher by convention, usually HMAC-SHA2, but Crypt::PBKDF2 is fully pluggable, and allows for...

Fedora 44 : perl-Crypt-PBKDF2 (2026-5b12cc327e)

The remote Fedora 44 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-5b12cc327e advisory. This update addresses a number of security issues: Change the default hash algorithm to HMAC-SHA256, and increase the default number of iterations t...

CVE-2026-12205

Crypt::DSA versions before 1.21 for Perl reused the nonce across signatures, leading to private-key recovery.
