The PerlIO implementation in Perl 5.8.0, when installed with setuid support (sperl), allows local users to create arbitrary files via the PERLIO_DEBUG variable.

The DBI library (libdbi-perl) for Perl allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary PID file.

Directory traversal vulnerability in awstats.pl in AWStats 6.3 and 6.4 allows remote attackers to include arbitrary Perl modules via .. (dot dot) sequences in the loadplugin parameter.

Direct code injection vulnerability in awstats.pl in AWStats 6.3 and 6.4 allows remote attackers to execute portions of Perl code via the PluginMode parameter.

Certain Perl scripts in Konversation 0.15 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in (1) channel names or (2) song names that are not properly quoted when the user runs IRC scripts.

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.

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.

Archive::Zip Perl module before 1.14, when used by antivirus programs such as amavisd-new, allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Novell NetWare Enterprise Web Server 5.1 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to process arbitrary script or HTML as other users via (1) a malformed request for a Perl program with script in the filename, (2) the User.id parameter to the webacc servlet, (3) the GWAP.version parameter to webacc, or (4) a URL request for a .bas file with script in the filename.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in unspecified Perl scripts in SandSurfer before 1.7.1 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML, which is later executed by a target who views reports containing the injected data.
