CVE-2020-14393 (2020-09-16)

A buffer overflow was found in perl-DBI < 1.643 in DBI.xs. A local attacker who is able to supply a string longer than 300 characters could cause an out-of-bounds write, affecting the availability of the service or integrity of data.

CVE-2020-14392 (2020-06-17)

An untrusted pointer dereference flaw was found in Perl-DBI < 1.643. A local attacker who is able to manipulate calls to dbd_db_login6_sv() could cause memory corruption, affecting the service's availability.

CVE-2019-20919 (2020-09-17)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module before 1.643 for Perl. The hv_fetch() documentation requires checking for NULL and the code does that. But, shortly thereafter, it calls SvOK(profile), causing a NULL pointer dereference.

CPANSA-DBI-2014-01 (2014-10-15)

DBD::File drivers open files from folders other than specifically passed using the f_dir attribute.

CVE-2014-10402 (2020-09-16)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module through 1.643 for Perl. DBD::File drivers can open files from folders other than those specifically passed via the f_dir attribute in the data source name (DSN). NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-10401.

CVE-2014-10401 (2020-09-11)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module before 1.632 for Perl. DBD::File drivers can open files from folders other than those specifically passed via the f_dir attribute.

CVE-2013-7491 (2020-09-11)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module before 1.628 for Perl. Stack corruption occurs when a user-defined function requires a non-trivial amount of memory and the Perl stack gets reallocated.

CVE-2013-7490 (2020-09-11)

An issue was discovered in the DBI module before 1.632 for Perl. Using many arguments to methods for Callbacks may lead to memory corruption.

NAME

DBI::Util::CacheMemory - a very fast but very minimal subset of Cache::Memory

DESCRIPTION

Like Cache::Memory (part of the Cache distribution) but doesn't support any fancy features.

This module aims to be a very fast compatible strict sub-set for simple cases, such as basic client-side caching for DBD::Gofer.

Like Cache::Memory, and other caches in the Cache and Cache::Cache distributions, the data will remain in the cache until cleared, it expires, or the process dies. The cache object simply going out of scope will not destroy the data.

METHODS WITH CHANGES

new

All options except namespace are ignored.

set

Doesn't support expiry.

purge

Same as clear() - deletes everything in the namespace.

METHODS WITHOUT CHANGES

clear
count
exists
remove

UNSUPPORTED METHODS

If it's not listed above, it's not supported.
