3. Problem description:
Perl is a high-level programming language commonly used for system
administration utilities and Web programming.
A flaw was found in Perl's regular expression engine. Specially crafted
input to a regular expression can cause Perl to improperly allocate memory,
possibly resulting in arbitrary code running with the permissions of the
user running Perl. (CVE-2007-5116)
Users of Perl are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to resolve this issue.
Red Hat would like to thank Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry for properly
disclosing this issue.
