CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedDBI::ProfileData versions prior to 1.651 for Perl are vulnerable due to an unbounded path index, which allows attackers to exploit this weakness by specifying excessively large indices. This can lead to memory exhaustion, potentially resulting in a denial of service. Organizations using affected versions of DBI::ProfileData should prioritize patching to mitigate this high-severity vulnerability.

Original NVD Description
DBI::ProfileData versions before 1.651 for Perl do not limit the path index. The path index column of profile dump files is used to allocate an array of data for the parser. An unbounded value allows an attacker to specify a large index and consume available memory.
