CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedNet::IP::LPM versions prior to 1.12 for Perl are vulnerable to accepting malformed prefix lengths, including non-numeric and non-ASCII values, which are incorrectly processed as 0. This flaw can lead to a compromised IP address filtering mechanism, where allow-lists permit all addresses and deny-lists block all addresses, effectively nullifying access controls. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize patching to prevent potential unauthorized access and security breaches.

Original NVD Description
Net::IP::LPM versions before 1.12 for Perl accept malformed prefix lengths. Non-numeric and non-ASCII prefix lengths are accepted and treated as 0. Integers over 31 bits are silently truncated. A single malformed mask will poison the lookup table. The result is that the lookup will silently succeed for every address. An allow-list will allow every address, and a deny-list will block every address.
