A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered in Perl.
Release branches 5.34, 5.36, 5.38 and 5.40 are affected, including development versions from 5.33.1 through 5.41.10.
When there are non-ASCII bytes in the left-hand-side of the `tr` operator, `S_do_trans_invmap` can overflow the destination pointer `d`.
$ perl -e '$_ = "\x{FF}" x 1000000; tr/\xFF/\x{100}/;'
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
It is believed that this vulnerability can enable Denial of Service and possibly Code Execution attacks on platforms that lack sufficient defenses.Verknüpft mit AI von unstrukturierten Daten zu bestehenden CPE der NVD
