Medium: perl-Net-CIDR-Lite

Issue Overview: Net::CIDR::Lite versions before 0.23 for Perl does not validate IPv6 group count, which may allow IP ACL bypass. packipv6 does not check that uncompressed IPv6 addresses without :: have exactly 8 hex groups. Inputs like "abcd", "1:2:3", or "1:2:3:4:5:6:7" are accepted and produce...

CVE-2026-40199

Net::CIDR::Lite versions before 0.23 for Perl mishandles IPv4 mapped IPv6 addresses, which may allow IP ACL bypass. packipv6 includes the sentinel byte from packipv4 when building the packed representation of IPv4 mapped addresses like ::ffff:192.168.1.1. This produces an 18 byte value instead of...

CVE-2026-40199

CVE-2026-40199 affects Net::CIDR::Lite before 0.23 for Perl. The bug: _pack_ipv6() incorrectly reuses the IPv4 sentinel byte when encoding IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses (::ffff: x.x.x.x), producing an 18-byte packed value instead of 17. This mislength misaligns the IPv4 part and breaks mask operatio...
