Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Module::Signature versions prior to 0.75

Description The issue allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse module under the current working directory. This can be demonstrated by a Trojan horse Text::Diff module, where an attacker could potentially exploit the untrusted search path vulnerability to elevate their privileges.

Recommendations For versions prior to 0.75, update to version 0.75 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the current working directory to minimize the risk of exploitation.
