7.2
 Admin Local Low Not required Complete Complete Complete
Untrusted search path vulnerability in Perl before 5.8.7-r1 on Gentoo Linux allows local users in the portage group to gain privileges via a malicious shared object in the Portage temporary build directory, which is part of the RUNPATH.
3 CVE-2005-0448 2005-05-02 2010-08-21
1.2
 None Local High Not required None Partial None

4 CVE-2005-0156 Exec Code Overflow 2005-02-07 2010-08-21
2.1
 None Local Low Not required None Partial None
Buffer overflow in the PerlIO implementation in Perl 5.8.0, when installed with setuid support (sperl), allows local users to execute arbitrary code by setting the PERLIO_DEBUG variable and executing a Perl script whose full pathname contains a long directory tree.
5 CVE-2005-0155 2005-05-02 2010-08-21
4.6
 None Local Low Not required Partial Partial Partial

7.5
 User Remote Low Not required Partial Partial Partial
Integer overflow in the duplication operator in ActivePerl allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a large multiplier, which may trigger a buffer overflow.

2.1
 None Local Low Not required None Partial None
Multiple scripts in the perl package in Trustix Secure Linux 1.5 through 2.1 and other operating systems allows local users to overwrite files via a symlink attack on temporary files.
8 CVE-2004-0452 2004-12-21 2010-08-21
2.6
 None Local High Not required None Partial Partial
Race condition in the rmtree function in the File::Path module in Perl 5.6.1 and 5.8.4 sets read/write permissions for the world, which allows local users to delete arbitrary files and directories, and possibly read files and directories, via a symlink attack.

7.2
 Admin Local Low Not required Complete Complete Complete
suidperl (aka sperl) does not properly cleanse the escape sequence "~!" before calling /bin/mail to send an error report, which allows local users to gain privileges by setting the "interactive" environmental variable and calling suidperl with a filename that contains the escape sequence.

2.1
 None Local Low Not required None Partial None
Perl 5.004_04 and earlier follows symbolic links when running with the -e option, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/perl-eaXXXXX file.
