CVE-2025-40909 (2025-05-30)

Perl threads have a working directory race condition where file operations may target unintended paths. If a directory handle is open at thread creation, the process-wide current working directory is temporarily changed in order to clone that handle for the new thread, which is visible from any third (or more) thread already running. This may lead to unintended operations such as loading code or accessing files from unexpected locations, which a local attacker may be able to exploit. The bug was introduced in commit 11a11ecf4bea72b17d250cfb43c897be1341861e and released in Perl version 5.13.6

NAME

Test2::Compare::Object - Representation of an object during deep comparison.

DESCRIPTION

This class lets you specify an expected object in a deep comparison. You can check the fields/elements of the underlying reference, call methods to verify results, and do meta checks for object type and ref type.

METHODS

$class = $obj->meta_class

The meta-class to be used when checking the object type. This is mainly listed because it is useful to override for specialized object subclasses.

This normally just returns Test2::Compare::Meta.

$class = $obj->object_base

The base-class to be expected when checking the object type. This is mainly listed because it is useful to override for specialized object subclasses.

This normally just returns 'UNIVERSAL'.

$obj->add_prop(...)

Add a meta-property to check, see Test2::Compare::Meta. This method just delegates.

$obj->add_field(...)

Add a hash-field to check, see Test2::Compare::Hash. This method just delegates.

$obj->add_item(...)

Add an array item to check, see Test2::Compare::Array. This method just delegates.

$obj->add_call($method, $check)
$obj->add_call($method, $check, $name)
$obj->add_call($method, $check, $name, $context)

Add a method call check. This will call the specified method on your object and verify the result. $method may be a method name, an array ref, or a coderef.

If it's an arrayref, the first element must be the method name, and the rest are arguments that will be passed to it.

In the case of a coderef it can be helpful to provide an alternate name. When no name is provided the name is either $method or the string '\&CODE'.

If $context is 'list', the method will be invoked in list context, and the result will be an arrayref.

If $context is 'hash', the method will be invoked in list context, and the result will be a hashref (this will warn if the method returns an odd number of values).
