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::Tools::Encoding - Tools for managing the encoding of Test2 based tests.

DESCRIPTION

This module exports a function that lets you dynamically change the output encoding at will.

SYNOPSIS

use Test2::Tools::Encoding;

set_encoding('utf8');

EXPORTS

All subs are exported by default.

set_encoding($encoding)

This will set the encoding to whatever you specify. This will only affect the output of the current formatter, which is usually your TAP output formatter.
