Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-111879/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-111879/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-111879","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-111879/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-111879","record":{"aliases":["AZL-110061","BELL-CVE-2026-111879","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-111879","ECHO-d873-e290-330f","GHSA-8cx8-9vj9-9x7j","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-111879"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"CPANSec","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-667","name":"Improper Locking"}],"description":"DBI versions before 1.656 for Perl hang on a later open of a DBD::DBM table because a failed open_data does not release the table's lock.\n\nopen_data creates the table's lock file and takes an exclusive flock on it for a CREATE, before the checks that can croak: a dbm_mldbm value that is not a module name, a failing tie, or a missing data file.
