Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-04-01 03:31 – Updated: 2025-04-01 21:31

Details

Sub::HandlesVia for Perl before 0.050002 allows untrusted code from the current working directory ('.') to be loaded similar to CVE-2016-1238.

If an attacker can place a malicious file in current working directory, it may be loaded instead of the intended file, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

Sub::HandlesVia uses Mite to produce the affected code section due to CVE-2025-30672

Severity

6.5 (Medium)
