Vulnerability from osv_rocky
DBI is a database access Application Programming Interface (API) for the Perl Language. The DBI API Specification defines a set of functions, variables and conventions that provide a consistent database interface independent of the actual database being used.
Security Fix(es):
-
perl-DBI: perl-DBI: Heap overflow in SQL preparsing can lead to denial of service or arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2026-10879)
-
DBI: DBI: Buffer overflow in error handling can lead to arbitrary code execution (CVE-2026-9698)
-
DBI: DBI: Arbitrary code execution via caller-influenced Profile attribute (CVE-2026-14380)
-
DBI: DBI: Heap overflow when preparsing SQL statements with excessive placeholders (CVE-2026-14739)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

The strongest remote position is a network-exposed DBI::Gofer / DBI::ProxyServer whose per-request DSN reaches the Profile attribute, letting a client execute code on the broker host."
