Subject: perl: overflow fix for Storable
Message-ID: &lt;aiMBAxOd6_yp87EY@app-dd&gt;

Package: perl
Version: 5.40.1-6
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream fixed-upstream security
Forwarded: https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/24413
X-Debbugs-Cc: carnil@debian.org

Perl 5.44 will include a potential overflow fix for the Storable module
that is also going to be backported for point releases of 5.42, 5.40,
and 5.38.  See https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/24445

Leon Timmermans recommended that we include this too. I'll push it to
the 5.40 sid+forky and 5.42 experimental packages at least.  Not sure
yet if we want them in stable (5.40) or oldstable (5.36) as well.

AIUI the security impact is moderate or low and this is only a problem
for badly written XS code. Copying Salvatore anyway just in case.
