Perl is vulnerable to Restriction Bypass. The Safe module did not properly restrict the code of implicitly called methods (such as DESTROY and AUTOLOAD) on implicitly blessed objects returned as a result of unsafe code evaluation. These methods could have been executed unrestricted by Safe when such objects were accessed or destroyed. A specially-crafted Perl script executed inside of a Safe compartment could use this flaw to bypass intended Safe module restrictions.
