Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the wp-pagenavi domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

ActiveState Perl Integer Overflow Vulnerability

ActiveState Perl is prone to an integer overflow vulnerability. It occurs due to a lack of sufficient bounds checking on multiplier data passed to a Perl duplicator statement. This vulnerability allows an attacker to influence the execution flow of a vulnerable Perl script and execute arbitrary code. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial of service.

Mitigation:

Apply the latest patches or updates from the vendor.

ActiveState Perl is reported to be prone to an integer overflow vulnerability. It is revealed through testing that other implementations are also vulnerable.

The issue is reported to exist due to a lack of sufficient bounds checking that is performed on multiplier data that is passed to a Perl duplicator statement. This vulnerability may permit an attacker to influence execution flow of a vulnerable Perl script to ultimately execute arbitrary code. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial of service.
