Package : libdbi-perl CVE ID : CVE-2026-14380 CVE-2026-14739 CVE-2026-14740 CVE-2026-15043 CVE-2026-15392 CVE-2026-60081 CVE-2026-60082 CVE-2026-73193 CVE-2026-73194 Debian Bug : 1141667 1142072 1144470 1144471 1144851

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in libdbi-perl, a Perl framework that provides a common interface to access various backend databases in a uniform manner, which could result in denial of service, path traversal, bypass of file-backed filters or the execution of arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in version 1.652-2~deb13u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libdbi-perl packages.

For the detailed security status of libdbi-perl please refer to its security tracker page at:
