    CVE-2017-16248

    Published: 1 Nov 2017Last Modified: 16 Apr 2026

    Summary:

    Details: The Catalyst-Plugin-Static-Simple module before 0.34 for Perl allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files if there is a '.' character anywhere in the pathname, which differs from the intended policy of allowing access only when the filename itself has a '.' character.
