Package: perl Version: 5.40.1-6 Severity: normal Tags: upstream fixed-upstream security Forwarded: https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/24413 X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Perl 5.44 will include a potential overflow fix for the Storable module that is also going to be backported for point releases of 5.42, 5.40, and 5.38. See https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/24445 Leon Timmermans recommended that we include this too. I'll push it to the 5.40 sid+forky and 5.42 experimental packages at least. Not sure yet if we want them in stable (5.40) or oldstable (5.36) as well. AIUI the security impact is moderate or low and this is only a problem for badly written XS code. Copying Salvatore anyway just in case. -- Niko Tyni [email protected]
