CVE-2016-1238

Digest::SHA before 5.96 with perls earlier than v5.26 included the current working directory in the module search path, which could lead to the inadvernant loading of unexpected versions of a module. The current directory was removed from the default module search path in perls from v5.26 and later.

Changes for version 5.83 - 2013-03-04

  • removed code for standalone C operation (no longer used)
    • eliminates need for external symbols
    • consolidates SHA and HMAC code
    • reduces size of object files
    • thanks to Marc Lehmann for suggestions
  • tweaked Makefile.PL to show dependencies of SHA.c
