-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2025-1d22f55c40 2025-08-06 01:55:23.021319+00:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : perl-Crypt-CBC Product : Fedora 41 Version : 3.07 Release : 1.fc41 URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Crypt-CBC Summary : Encrypt Data with Cipher Block Chaining Mode Description : This is Crypt::CBC, a Perl-only implementation of the cryptographic cipher block chaining mode (CBC). In combination with a block cipher such as Crypt::DES or Crypt::IDEA, you can encrypt and decrypt messages of arbitrarily long length. The encrypted messages are compatible with the encryption format used by SSLeay. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update, to the current upstream release version, includes a fix to source random numbers using the Crypt::URandom module rather than trying to read /dev/urandom and falling back to Perl's insecure rand() function if /dev/urandom is not usable (CVE-2025-2814). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Jul 28 2025 Paul Howarth <paul@city-fan.org> - 3.07-1 - Update to 3.07 (rhbz#2383870) - New upstream maintainer - Fix CVE-2025-2814 by using Crypt::URandom - Fix decryption of ciphertext created with 'header' => 'randomiv' - Fixed bug in which manually-specified key and -pkdf=>"none" was not having any effect - Converted build process to Dist::Zilla - Miscellaneous minor Dist::Zilla related changes - Switch upstream source URL from cpan.metacpan.org to www.cpan.org to skip a redirect - Package new LICENSE, SECURITY.md and vulnerabilities.txt files * Fri Jul 25 2025 Fedora Release Engineering <releng@fedoraproject.org> - 3.04-18 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_43_Mass_Rebuild * Sat Jan 18 2025 Fedora Release Engineering <releng@fedoraproject.org> - 3.04-17 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_42_Mass_Rebuild -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #2359385 - CVE-2025-2814 perl-Crypt-CBC: Crypt::CBC versions between 1.21 and 3.04 for Perl may use insecure rand() function for cryptographic functions [fedora-41] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2359385 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
