CVE-2025-40907 (2025-05-16)

FCGI versions 0.44 through 0.82, for Perl, include a vulnerable version of the FastCGI fcgi2 (aka fcgi) library. The included FastCGI library is affected by CVE-2025-23016, causing an integer overflow (and resultant heap-based buffer overflow) via crafted nameLen or valueLen values in data to the IPC socket. This occurs in ReadParams in fcgiapp.c.

Changes for version 0.79 - 2019-12-14

  • Check socket path length in OS_CreateLocalIpcFd() and OS_FcgiConnect() to avoid buffer overrun (Petr Písař, pull request #5)
  • Fix a memory leak in ProcessManagementRecord() (Petr Písař, pull request #4)
