CVE-2020-14393 (2020-09-16)

A buffer overflow was found in perl-DBI < 1.643 in DBI.xs. A local attacker who is able to supply a string longer than 300 characters could cause an out-of-bounds write, affecting the availability of the service or integrity of data.

CVE-2020-14392 (2020-06-17)

An untrusted pointer dereference flaw was found in Perl-DBI < 1.643. A local attacker who is able to manipulate calls to dbd_db_login6_sv() could cause memory corruption, affecting the service's availability.

CVE-2019-20919 (2020-09-17)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module before 1.643 for Perl. The hv_fetch() documentation requires checking for NULL and the code does that. But, shortly thereafter, it calls SvOK(profile), causing a NULL pointer dereference.

CPANSA-DBI-2014-01 (2014-10-15)

DBD::File drivers open files from folders other than specifically passed using the f_dir attribute.

CVE-2014-10402 (2020-09-16)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module through 1.643 for Perl. DBD::File drivers can open files from folders other than those specifically passed via the f_dir attribute in the data source name (DSN). NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-10401.

CVE-2014-10401 (2020-09-11)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module before 1.632 for Perl. DBD::File drivers can open files from folders other than those specifically passed via the f_dir attribute.

CVE-2013-7491 (2020-09-11)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module before 1.628 for Perl. Stack corruption occurs when a user-defined function requires a non-trivial amount of memory and the Perl stack gets reallocated.

CVE-2013-7490 (2020-09-11)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module before 1.632 for Perl. Using many arguments to methods for Callbacks may lead to memory corruption.
