CVE ID: CVE-2026-123776 Distribution: RRD-CGI-Image Versions: through 0.01 MetaCPAN: https://metacpan.org/dist/RRD-CGI-Image RRD::CGI::Image versions through 0.01 for Perl pass CGI query parameters containting "tz" to tzset(), , so a FIFO or device path blocks the CGI process Description ----------- RRD::CGI::Image versions through 0.01 for Perl pass CGI query parameters containting "tz" to tzset(), , so a FIFO or device path blocks the CGI process. The normalize_params method sends any query key matching /tz/i to tz(), which sets $ENV{TZ} to that value, with no validation. It then calls tzset(). glibc treats a TZ value starting with / or : as a file path and opens it, so a value naming a FIFO or a blocking device stalls the process inside tzset(). Problem types ------------- - CWE-1287 Improper Validation of Specified Type of Input Solutions --------- Apply the patch.
