Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for libnet-oauth-perl.

CVE-2026-75589[0]:
| Net::OAuth versions before 0.33 for Perl check HMAC-SHA1, HMAC-
| SHA256 and PLAINTEXT signatures with a non-constant-time comparison
| in verify.  Each of the three compares the signature carried in the
| message against the locally computed one with the eq operator, which
| returns as soon as the two strings differ. The time taken to reject
| a signature varies with the length of the matching prefix. RSA-SHA1
| is not affected, as it verifies through the RSA key object rather
| than by comparing strings.  A client that can submit messages and
| time the replies may recover a valid signature one byte at a time
| rather than searching the whole signature space. Under PLAINTEXT the
| value compared against is the signature key itself, so the search
| recovers consumer_secret and token_secret.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
