a380f43e-19e5-11f0-9568-b42e991fc52ePerl -- heap buffer overflow when transliterating non-ASCII bytes

9b29abf9-4ab0-4765-b253-1875cd9b441e reports:

A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered in Perl. When there are non-ASCII bytes in the left-hand-side of the `tr` operator, `S_do_trans_invmap` can overflow the destination pointer `d`. $ perl -e '$_ = "\x{FF}" x 1000000; tr/\xFF/\x{100}/;' Segmentation fault (core dumped) It is believed that this vulnerability can enable Denial of Service and possibly Code Execution attacks on platforms that lack sufficient defenses.
