Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 201401-33 - A vulnerability has been found in the Digest-Base Perl module, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Versions less than 1.170.0 are affected.
073b067938255df59111607a647be7a61207ceda164ae0bab0a2f2e8b3d64f0fUbuntu Security Notice 1643-1 - It was discovered that the decode_xs function in the Encode module is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow via a crafted Unicode string. An attacker could use this overflow to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that the 'new' constructor in the Digest module is vulnerable to an eval injection. An attacker could use this to execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.

ab37b6926b046653acdeeef66e7c85baMandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-009 - Eval injection in the Digest module before 1.17 for Perl allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the new constructor. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Eval injection in the Digest module before 1.17 for Perl allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the new constructor. The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

It was found that the "new" constructor of the Digest module used its argument as part of the string expression passed to the eval() function. An attacker could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary Perl code with the privileges of a Perl program that uses untrusted input as an argument to the constructor. It was found that the Perl CGI module used a hard-coded value for the MIME boundary string in multipart/x-mixed-replace content. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to conduct an HTTP response splitting attack via a specially-crafted HTTP request.

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way Perl decoded Unicode strings. An attacker could create a malicious Unicode string that, when decoded by a Perl program, would cause the program to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the program. It was found that the "new" constructor of the Digest module used its argument as part of the string expression passed to the eval() function. An attacker could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary Perl code with the privileges of a Perl program that uses untrusted input as an argument to the constructor.
