Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
DBD::Pg module version 1.49
Description
A heap-based buffer overflow issue exists in the DBD::Pg module for Perl, potentially allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code. This issue arises when unspecified input is provided to an application that utilizes the getline and pg getline functions to read database rows.
Recommendations
For DBD::Pg module version 1.49, consider updating to a newer version that addresses this issue, as using the getline and pg getline functions with untrusted input may lead to exploitation. As a temporary workaround, restrict the use of these functions with untrusted data until a patch is available.
