Out-of-Bounds Read in DBI (CVE-2026-60082)
Summary
Vulnerability in DBI (CVE-2026-60082). Confidential information can be exposed externally.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
DBI versions before 1.651 for Perl do not enforce statement handle consistency with the row.
When the statement handle had no fields but the source row was non-empty, the internal row-buffer helper would read from a negative array index.
This could be triggered by a caller supplying inconsistent metadata and rows to the prepare method.
