5+
perl5343delta - what is new for perl v5.34.3
6+
7+
=head1 DESCRIPTION
8+
9+
This document describes differences between the 5.34.1 release and the 5.34.3
10+
release. B<Please note:> This document ignores Perl 5.34.2, a broken release
11+
which existed for a couple of days only.
12+
13+
If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.34.0, first read
14+
L<perl5341delta>, which describes differences between 5.34.0 and 5.34.1.
15+
16+
=head1 Security
17+
18+
This release fixes the following security issues.
19+
20+
=head2 CVE-2023-47038 - Write past buffer end via illegal user-defined Unicode property
21+
22+
This vulnerability was reported directly to the Perl security team by
23+
Nathan Mills C<[email protected]>.
24+
25+
A crafted regular expression when compiled by perl 5.30.0 through
26+
5.38.0 can cause a one-byte attacker controlled buffer overflow in a
27+
heap allocated buffer.
28+
29+
=head2 CVE-2023-47039 - Perl for Windows binary hijacking vulnerability
30+
31+
This vulnerability was reported to the Intel Product Security Incident
32+
Response Team (PSIRT) by GitHub user ycdxsb
33+
L<https://github.com/ycdxsb/WindowsPrivilegeEscalation>. PSIRT then
34+
reported it to the Perl security team.
35+
36+
Perl for Windows relies on the system path environment variable to
37+
find the shell (C<cmd.exe>). When running an executable which uses
38+
Windows Perl interpreter, Perl attempts to find and execute C<cmd.exe>
39+
within the operating system. However, due to path search order issues,
40+
Perl initially looks for cmd.exe in the current working directory.
41+
42+
An attacker with limited privileges can exploit this behavior by
43+
placing C<cmd.exe> in locations with weak permissions, such as
44+
C<C:\ProgramData>. By doing so, when an administrator attempts to use
45+
this executable from these compromised locations, arbitrary code can
46+
be executed.
47+
48+
=head1 Acknowledgements
49+
50+
Perl 5.34.3 represents approximately 1 month of development since Perl
51+
5.34.1 and contains approximately 3,700 lines of changes across 40 files
52+
from 4 authors.
53+
54+
Excluding auto-generated files, documentation and release tools, there were
55+
approximately 2,800 lines of changes to 9 .pm, .t, .c and .h files.
56+
57+
Perl continues to flourish into its fourth decade thanks to a vibrant
58+
community of users and developers. The following people are known to have
59+
contributed the improvements that became Perl 5.34.3:
60+
61+
Karl Williamson, Paul Evans, Steve Hay, Tony Cook.
62+
63+
The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically
64+
generated from version control history. In particular, it does not include
65+
the names of the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to
66+
the Perl bug tracker.
67+
68+
Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules
69+
included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for
70+
helping Perl to flourish.

83+
tiny but sufficient test case.

If the bug you are reporting has security implications which make it
86+
inappropriate to send to a public issue tracker, then see
