Security Advisories (1)
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::EventFacet::Error - Facet for errors that need to be shown.

DESCRIPTION

This facet is used when an event needs to convey errors.

NOTES

This facet has the hash key 'errors', and is a list of facets instead of a single item.

FIELDS

$string = $error->{details}
$string = $error->details()

Explanation of the error, or the error itself (such as an exception). In perl exceptions may be blessed objects, so this field may contain a blessed object.

$short_string = $error->{tag}
$short_string = $error->tag()

Short tag to categorize the error. This is usually 10 characters or less, formatters may truncate longer tags.

$bool = $error->{fail}
$bool = $error->fail()

Not all errors are fatal, some are displayed having already been handled. Set this to true if you want the error to cause the test to fail. Without this the error is simply a diagnostics message that has no effect on the overall pass/fail result.
