CVE-2026-5088 Apache::API::Password versions through 0.5.2 for Perl can generate insecure random values for salts

Apache::API::Password versions through 0.5.2 for Perl can generate insecure random values for salts. The makesalt and makesaltbcrypt methods will attept to load Crypt::URandom and then Bytes::Random::Secure to generate random bytes for the salt. If those modules are unavailable, it will simply...

SUSE 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...

perl-xml-parser: XML::Parser: Memory corruption via deeply nested XML files

A flaw was found in XML::Parser, a Perl module for parsing XML. This vulnerability, an off-by-one heap buffer overflow, occurs when processing an XML file with very deep element nesting. A remote attacker could exploit this by providing a specially crafted XML file, potentially leading to memory...

Important: perl-XML-Parser security update

This module provides ways to parse XML documents. It is built on top of XML::Parser::Expat, which is a lower level interface to James Clark's expat library. Each call to one of the parsing methods creates a new instance of XML::Parser::Expat which is then used to parse the document. Expat options...

http-tiny: perl: insecure TLS cert default

A vulnerability was found in Tiny, where a Perl core module and standalone CPAN package, does not verify TLS certificates by default. Users need to explicitly enable certificate verification with the verifySSL=1 flag to ensure secure HTTPS connections. This oversight can potentially expose...

CVE-2026-40198

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 packed values of...

CVE-2026-5082 Amon2::Plugin::Web::CSRFDefender versions from 7.00 through 7.03 for Perl generate an insecure session id

Amon2::Plugin::Web::CSRFDefender versions from 7.00 through 7.03 for Perl generate an insecure session id. The generatesessionid function will attempt to read bytes from the /dev/urandom device, but if that is unavailable then it generates bytes using SHA-1 hash seeded with the built-in rand...

CVE-2026-5082

Amon2::Plugin::Web::CSRFDefender for Perl, versions 7.00–7.03, generates insecure session IDs. The generate_session_id routine first reads from /dev/urandom; if unavailable, it falls back to SHA-1 seeded with the built-in rand(), the process PID, and the high-resolution epoch time. The PID is dra...
