DescriptionCVE.org

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.

AnalysisAI

Input validation failure in Net::IP::LPM before 1.12 for Perl allows malformed CIDR prefix lengths to silently poison the longest-prefix-match lookup table. Non-numeric strings, Unicode digits (Arabic-Indic, fullwidth), hex notation, and integers exceeding 31 bits are all accepted and numified to zero or silently truncated by the XS/C layer, causing the malformed entry to be recorded as a /0 default route. …
