Name : perl-Mojolicious
Product : Fedora 31
Version : 8.42
Release : 1.fc31
URL :   https://metacpan.org/release/Mojolicious
Summary : A next generation web framework for Perl
Description :
Back in the early days of the web there was this wonderful Perl library
called CGI, many people only learned Perl because of it. It was simple
enough to get started without knowing much about the language and powerful
enough to keep you going, learning by doing was much fun. While most of the
techniques used are outdated now, the idea behind it is not. Mojolicious is
a new attempt at implementing this idea using state of the art technology.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This package fixes a security issue that allowed for _method query parameters to
be used with GET requests. The fix is backported from Mojolicious v8.42.
