Source: libplack-perl Version: 1.0055-1 X-Debbugs-CC: [email protected] Severity: important Tags: security upstream
Hi, The following vulnerability was published for libplack-perl. CVE-2026-115825[0]: | HTTP::Server::PSGI versions before 1.0056 for Perl allow a single | request to crash the server by declaring a large Content-Length. | The request body is read with sysread() calls sized by the remaining | Content-Length. Perl grows the read buffer to the requested length | before any data arrives, so the server tries to allocate as much | memory as the client declares. A remote attacker can send one | request with a large Content-Length and a few body bytes, and perl | exits with an out-of-memory error before the application is called. | HTTP::Server::PSGI runs as a single process, so the server stays | down until restarted. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
