Description

Important: perl:5.32 security update

Perl is a high-level programming language that is commonly used for system administration utilities and web programming.

Security Fix(es):

  • perl-archive-tar: perl-archive-tar: Path traversal via crafted symlinks allows arbitrary file access (CVE-2026-42496)
  • perl-IO-Compress: perl-IO-Compress: Arbitrary code execution via attacker-controlled output glob (CVE-2026-48962)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached with local access to the system, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs low-level privileges on the target. A user must be tricked into taking some action. The scope is changed, meaning a successful attack can affect components beyond the vulnerable one. Rated impact: confidentiality high, integrity high, availability high.
