Bug#696374: libcrypt-cbc-perl: unusable with taint mode; please upgrade to 2.32

[Corey Hickey]

Package: libcrypt-cbc-perl
Version: 2.31-1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

2.31 seems to have introduced a bug that makes data always appear
tainted:

$ /tmp/t.pl 
Taint checks are turned on and your key is tainted. Please untaint the
key and try again at /tmp/t.pl line 11

--------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl -T

use strict;
use warnings FATAL => 'all';
use Crypt::CBC;

my $cipher = Crypt::CBC->new(
    -key => "asdf",
    -cipher => "Rijndael",
);
print $cipher->encrypt("asdf");
--------------------------------

This appears to have been fixed upstream in 2.32.

Thanks,
Corey
