Summary: Perl integer overflow issue Product: Fedora Core Version: fc4 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: security Priority: normal Component: perl AssignedTo: jvdias@redhat.com ReportedBy: bressers@redhat.com QAContact: dkl@redhat.com CC: fedora-perl-devel-list@redhat.com
Perl integer overflow issue
There exists an integer overflow problem in Perl which can lead to a string format issue. If a large enough integer is supplied to a printf statement which uses the %n conversion, it may be possible to execute arbitrary code. This problem will not be easy to remotely exploit as a very poorly written script will first be needed.
