2016-01-13 CVE-2015-8607 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
The canonpath function in the File::Spec module in PathTools before 3.62, as used in Perl, does not properly preserve the taint attribute of data, which might allow context-dependent attackers to bypass the taint protection mechanism via a crafted string.

2015-08-16 CVE-2013-7422 Numeric Errors vulnerability in multiple products
Integer underflow in regcomp.c in Perl before 5.20, as used in Apple OS X before 10.10.5 and other products, allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a long digit string associated with an invalid backreference within a regular expression.

2014-10-06 CVE-2013-7329 Information Exposure vulnerability in Perl CGI Application Module
The CGI::Application module before 4.50_50 and 4.50_51 for Perl, when run modes are not specified, allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information (web queries and environment details) via vectors related to the dump_html function.

2014-09-30 CVE-2014-4330 Improper Restriction of Operations Within the Bounds of A Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The Dumper method in Data::Dumper before 2.154, as used in Perl 5.20.1 and earlier, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (stack consumption and crash) via an Array-Reference with many nested Array-References, which triggers a large number of recursive calls to the DD_dump function.

2014-02-10 CVE-2010-4777 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Perl 5.10/5.12.0/5.14.0
The Perl_reg_numbered_buff_fetch function in Perl 5.10.0, 5.12.0, 5.14.0, and other versions, when running with debugging enabled, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit) via crafted input that is not properly handled when using certain regular expressions, as demonstrated by causing SpamAssassin and OCSInventory to crash.

2013-03-14 CVE-2013-1667 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Perl
The rehash mechanism in Perl 5.8.2 through 5.16.x allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and crash) via a crafted hash key.

2013-01-04 CVE-2012-6329 Code Injection vulnerability in Perl
The _compile function in Maketext.pm in the Locale::Maketext implementation in Perl before 5.17.7 does not properly handle backslashes and fully qualified method names during compilation of bracket notation, which allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary commands via crafted input to an application that accepts translation strings from users, as demonstrated by the TWiki application before 5.1.3, and the Foswiki application 1.0.x through 1.0.10 and 1.1.x through 1.1.6.

2012-12-21 CVE-2011-2728 Remote Code Execution vulnerability in Perl 'decode_xs()' and 'File::Glob::bsd_glob()'
The bsd_glob function in the File::Glob module for Perl before 5.14.2 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a glob expression with the GLOB_ALTDIRFUNC flag, which triggers an uninitialized pointer dereference.
