There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - DBI versions before 1.654 for Perl incorrectly treat numeric values as strings in FetchHashKeyName.
    fetchrow_hashref uses the string pointer of the FetchHashKeyName attribute as the key name without
    stringifying it first. When FetchHashKeyName has been set to an integer (IV) or floating-point (NV) value,
    that pointer is invalid, so reading the key name triggers a segmentation fault. This can be triggered with
    the following code: my $dbh = DBI->connect( "dbi:ExampleP:", "", "", { RaiseError => 0, PrintError => 0 }
    ); $dbh->{FetchHashKeyName} = 42; my $sth = $dbh->prepare("select mode, size, name from .");
    $sth->execute; $sth->fetchrow_hashref; (CVE-2026-88816)

The remote Fedora 43 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-272f19f521 advisory.
