Changes for version v6.1.1 - 2026-09-09

  • Avoid errors or an infinite loop in Pod::Text and its subclasses when attempting to wrap text whose margin equals or exceeds the output width. Instead, report an error and force the margin to zero. Thanks to Jitka Plesnikova for the report. (CVE-2026-82560)
  • When Pod::Text::Overstrike wraps a line at a bold or underscored space, avoid leaving partially formatted spaces at the start of the subsequent line.
