Paul's Blog Entries for June 2026
Monday 1st June 2026
Fedora Project
Updated perl-Email-Address-List to 0.07 in Rawhide:
- Update whitespace removal code to remove all types of unicode whitespace in addition to ASCII
Updated perl-Perl-Critic (1.156) in Rawhide to run tests with LANG=en_US.UTF-8 to fix pod spelling test on Rawhide (running without the ".UTF-8" resulted in errors being triggered for parts of contractions like "isn" and "doesn")
Local Packages
Updated perl-Perl-Critic (1.156) as per the Fedora version
Tuesday 2nd June 2026
Fedora Project
Updated perl-GD to 2.85 in Rawhide:
Tolerate runtime TIFF decode failures in autodetect (GH#62)
Replace cpm with cpanm in github actions
Fixed a minor precedence bug in t/z_manifest.t
Updated perl-IO-Tty (1.31) with fix for Bug #2463168 (perl-IO-Tty-1.24 or newer break coreutils test-suite) (GH#91, GH#95)
Updated perl-Sereal-Decoder, perl-Sereal-Encoder and perl-Sereal to 5.006 in EPEL-10.2 to make sure that COPY tags cannot be used to read past end of buffer (CVE-2026-8796)
Local Packages
Updated curl (rc) to new upstream release candidate 8.21.0~rc1
Updated perl-IO-Tty (1.31) as per the Fedora version
Updated perl-Module-CoreList to 5.20260601:
- Updated for v5.43.11
Cleaned up and rebuilt perl-Sub-Exporter (0.991)
Wednesday 3rd June 2026
Fedora Project
Merged PR#2 for perl-IO-Socket-SSL to BR: procps-ng rather than procps for the test suite since procps has been provided by the procps-ng package since Fedora 18
Local Packages
Updated nmap (7.92) to fix OpenSSL 4.0 compatibility
Updated perl-Archive-Tar to 3.12:
Allow '..' links in secure extract in parent path for symlinks and hardlinks
Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL (2.098) as per the Fedora version
Friday 5th June 2026
Local Packages
Updated perl-DBI to 1.648:
Correct sprintf usage for trace_msg (GH#132)
Add DBIXS_VERSION and DBIXS_RELEASE to dbixs_rev.h
Remove -Wbad-function-cast
Fix possible stack overflow (CVE-2026-9698)
- Do not allow table source locations outside explicit given folders
DBD::Sponge PRECISION handling (GH#12)
Fix possible buffer overflow in preparse
Skip mismatching .so's (GH#81)
Fix cast warning in dbi_get_state (GH#182)
Sunday 7th June 2026
Fedora Project
Updated perl-Cpanel-JSON-XS to 4.42 in Rawhide:
Ensure encode with a type spec hashref does not change the hashref argument (GH#240)
Fix -e docs: "written" → "read" (GH#239)
Fix Boolean eq overload matching undef (GH#207); Cpanel::JSON::XS::Boolean overloaded eq would match undef as equal to false because undef stringifies to "" - added defined() guard
Fix error messages showing overloaded stringification for blessed objects (GH#191); error messages now use ClassName=TYPE(addr) format, bypassing any "" overload
Fix type_all_string overriding allow_blessed/convert_blessed (GH#175); with type_all_string + allow_blessed, blessed objects are now encoded as null (not stringified as HASH address)
Fix infinite recursion when encode is called from a "" overload (GH#128); the recursion guard temporarily clears convert_blessed and allow_stringify flags on the JSON object before calling the overload, preventing re-entrant encode loops
Fix $obj->new creating a broken object (GH#93); when new() is called on an existing object (e.g. $json->new->new), the class name is now extracted from the object's stash rather than using the stringified reference
Change allow_nonref default to true (GH#241, matching JSON::PP and JSON::XS 4.0+ and the insecure RFC 7159); encode and decode now accept non-reference values by default; decode_json() with an explicit 0/1 second argument still works; allow_nonref(0) to disable scalars-only for secure JSON
Fix minor t/12_blessed.t typo
Fix GH#112: encode large whole-number NV values without .0 on 32-bit Perl (values exceeding UV_MAX that Perl stores as float)
Fix GH#197: prefer IOK over pNOK when encoding values where IV is accurate but NV is imprecise (SvNOK not set)
Local Packages

Set the payload_len field before checking its value (GH#292)
Keep the SSH packet reading code in mod_proxy more in line with what is done in mod_sftp, for legibility (GH#294)
Implement support for the OpenSSH-specific ChaChaPoly SSH algorithm (GH#295, GH#296)
Correct misspellings noted by codespell (GH#297)
Use clang-tidy to start polishing the codebase (GH#298)

Implement the "mlkem768x25519-sha256" and "sntrup761x25519-sha512" post-quantum SSH key exchange mechanisms (GH#306)
- Add sanity check for SRV record lengths
Ensure that the SSH payload length computation, for ETM/ChaChaPoly packets, does not underflow
- If we detect a bad DSA signature length, properly error out
- Ensure that RSA/DSA signatures match their expected algorithm types, and avoid null pointer dereferences
Update to build against OpenSSL 4.x (GH#313)
I added a fix for "error: implicit declaration of function 'handle_kex_sntrup761'" with some older OpenSSL versions (GH#2137)
Local Packages
Updated perl-DBD-CSV (0.62) as per the Fedora version
Updated perl-Object-HashBase to 0.017:
List Role::Tiny (1.003000+) and Class::Method::Modifiers as RuntimeSuggests in dist.ini
Skip role tests when Role::Tiny is missing or older than 1.003000 (no is_role), so install is not blocked
Move 'around' modifier test to its own file (t/role_modifiers.t) that skips when Class::Method::Modifiers is unavailable; Role::Tiny loads it lazily only for method modifiers (GH#5)
Updated proftpd to 1.3.9b as per the Fedora version
Updated proftpd (rc) to 1.3.10rc2:
Scoreboard wlock_entry() function used F_UNLCK instead of F_WRLCK (GH#2058)
SQL Injection in mod_wrap2_sql via reverse DNS hostname (GH#2057, CVE-2026-44331)
FTP sessions could be prematurely closed during updates of system time/date (GH#2047)
Additional fix for session management with OpenSSL 3.2.x or later, when using TLSv1.2 or earlier; this complements the fix for GH#1963 (GH#2056)
Add support for post-quantum key change algorithms to mod_sftp; the "mlkem768x25519-sha256" and "sntrup761x25519-sha512" algorithms have been implemented (GH#2033)
Implement support for PKCS#11 URIs for TLS private keys in mod_tls (GH#2041)
<Limit READ> configurations are not honoured by SITE COPY as they should be (GH#2095)

- I also dropped a workaround for over-long test directory name, which is no longer needed
Updated perl-Object-HashBase to 0.018:
Fix bogus parent/role croaks losing their message on perl < 5.14: croak now happens outside the local($@) scope, so the exception is no longer clobbered when the local is restored during unwind
Replace '//=' (perl 5.10+) with a defined check so the module compiles on perl 5.8.x as declared by MIN_PERL_VERSION 5.008001
Wednesday 10th June 2026

Generate salts using Crypt::URandom (a strong system RNG) instead of perl's builtin rand(), which is not cryptographically secure (CVE-2026-9638)

Monday 15th June 2026
Fedora Project
Updated perl-Crypt-DSA to 1.21 in F-43, F-44, Rawhide, EPEL-10.2 and EPEL-10:
Fixed key material reuse for multiple signing events (CVE-2026-12205, CWE-323)
sign() reused the DSA nonce k across signatures (r and k^-1 were cached on the key and not regenerated), allowing private-key recovery from two signatures over different messages
- Now generates a fresh nonce per signature
- Keys used to sign more than once with an affected version should be considered compromised
