Package: perl
Version: 5.24.1-3+deb9u3
Severity: important
The keyword plugin pointer is left pointing to an unloaded XS module -
resulting in a crash in toke.c.
To reproduce is quite simple using mod_perl2 (pre)loading DBD::Oracle
and Syntax::Keyword::Try (or other).
ie.
(install mod_perl2)
cpanm Syntax::Keyword::Try
(install Oracle SDK)
cpanm DBD::Oracle
create a /var/www/html/startup.pl with contents:
use DBD::Oracle; use Syntax::Keyword::Try; 1;
create a file /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/breakperl.conf with contents:
PerlRequire /var/www/html/startup.pl
(start apache)
Apache will crash nearly instantly
The core file can be examined and i have posted an example at
https://gist.github.com/djzort/980a6a7e1241f3c4d036a6d68641b22c
This bug is easily fixed by applying the patch in
https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131786
It applies cleanly as-is
This is already in newer versions of perl via commit
fa2e45943e2b6ce22cf70dba5b47afe73c8c7c80 in perl's git branch
Could this patch please be applied and a new release created
