CVE-2026-16634 (2026-07-24)

TOML::XS versions before 0.06 for Perl bundle an unsupported and vulnerable version of tomlc99. The tomlc99 library is no longer maintained, and has an uncontrolled recursion vulnerability publicly reported in the issue tracker. Any caller that passes untrusted TOML to from_toml risks a stack overflow from a deeply-nested document. TOML::XS version 0.06 or later uses the successor tomlc17 library.

NAME

TOML::XS::Document - Object representation of a TOML document

SYNOPSIS

See TOML::XS.

DESCRIPTION

Instances of this class represent a parse of a TOML document.

This class is not directly instantiable.

METHODS

$hashref = OBJ->to_struct()

Returns a hash reference that represents the parsed TOML document.

If the read of the TOML structure encounters a malformed data point an exception is thrown. As of now that exception is a simple character string that includes a JSON pointer to the problematic data point.
