CVE-2014-10401

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions DBI module versions prior to 1.632

Description An issue was discovered in the DBI module for Perl, where DBD::File drivers can open files from folders other than those specifically passed via the f dir attribute.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.632, update to version 1.632 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the DBD::File drivers to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the f dir attribute in a way that could allow access to unintended folders until the issue is resolved.
