An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-60075 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: perl-Date-Manip. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. 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-2026-60075/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-60075/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-60075","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-60075/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-60075","record":{"aliases":["ALSA-2026:56970","ALSA-2026:56971","ALSA-2026:57562","AZL-94392","CLSA-2026-1788262245","CLSA-2026-1788263623","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-60075","GHSA-6w78-p685-p2f6","RHSA-2026:56970","RHSA-2026:56971","RHSA-2026:57562","RLSA-2026:56970","RLSA-2026:56971","RLSA-2026:57562","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-60075"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Perl date library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause CPU exhaustion and denial of service by submitting strings with long whitespace runs to the Date::Manip Perl library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"CPANSec","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1333","name":"Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity"}],"description":"Date::Manip versions through 7.00 for Perl allow CPU exhaustion via quadratic backtracking in the unanchored time substitution in _parse_time.\n\n_parse_time removes a time from anywhere in the string with the unanchored substitution `s/$timerx/ /`, where $timerx is an auto-generated alternation of time patterns reached through a leading `(?:$atrx|^|\\s+)`. The engine therefore retries the match at every position of an interior whitespace run: at each start position the leading `\\s+` consumes the rest of the run greedily, the time alternation fails because the run holds no digits, and the engine backtracks a space at a time across the run before advancing the start position, which is quadratic in the length of the run. No time need be present in the string for this to happen, only a long run of whitespace, and the parse time rises about fourfold for each doubling of the run: a few kilobytes of whitespace costs seconds of CPU per parse and tens of kilobytes costs minutes.\n\nAny caller that passes an untrusted string of unbounded length to ParseDate(), Date::Manip::Date-\u003eparse() or -\u003eparse_time() can be made to spend unbounded CPU in a single parse, a denial of service.","ecosystems":["AlmaLinux:10","AlmaLinux:8","AlmaLinux:9","Red Hat:enterprise_linux:10.2","Red Hat:enterprise_linux:8::baseos","Red Hat:enterprise_linux:9::appstream","Rocky Linux:10","Rocky Linux:8","Rocky Linux:9"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Date::Manip versions through 7.00 for Perl allow CPU exhaustion via quadratic backtracking in the unanchored time substitution in _parse_time.","id":"CVE-2026-60075","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":9,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Apache Fory: Rust MetaString heap use-after-free","id":"CVE-2026-60080"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:10","fixed":["6.94-5.el10_2.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"perl-Date-Manip","purl":"pkg:rpm/almalinux/perl-Date-Manip","source":"ALSA-2026:56971"},{"ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:8","fixed":["6.60-3.el8_10.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"perl-Date-Manip","purl":"pkg:rpm/almalinux/perl-Date-Manip","source":"ALSA-2026:57562"},{"ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:9","fixed":["6.85-3.el9_8.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"perl-Date-Manip","purl":"pkg:rpm/almalinux/perl-Date-Manip","source":"ALSA-2026:56970"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:enterprise_linux:10.2","fixed":["0:6.94-5.el10_2.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"perl-Date-Manip","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/perl-Date-Manip","source":"RHSA-2026:56971"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:enterprise_linux:8::baseos","fixed":["0:6.60-3.el8_10.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"perl-Date-Manip","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/perl-Date-Manip","source":"RHSA-2026:57562"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:enterprise_linux:9::appstream","fixed":["0:6.85-3.el9_8.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"perl-Date-Manip","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/perl-Date-Manip","source":"RHSA-2026:56970"},{"ecosystem":"Rocky Linux:10","fixed":["0:6.94-5.el10_2.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"perl-Date-Manip","purl":"pkg:rpm/rocky-linux/perl-Date-Manip?distro=rocky-linux-10-aarch64\u0026epoch=0","source":"RLSA-2026:56971"},{"ecosystem":"Rocky Linux:8","fixed":["0:6.60-3.el8_10.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"perl-Date-Manip","purl":"pkg:rpm/rocky-linux/perl-Date-Manip?distro=rocky-linux-8-x86-64\u0026epoch=0","source":"RLSA-2026:57562"},{"ecosystem":"Rocky Linux:9","fixed":["0:6.85-3.el9_8.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"perl-Date-Manip","purl":"pkg:rpm/rocky-linux/perl-Date-Manip?distro=rocky-linux-9-x86-64\u0026epoch=0","source":"RLSA-2026:56970"}],"prev":{"headline":"Date::Manip versions through 7.00 for Perl return corrupted dates via non-ASCII decimal digits that pass the numeric range tests in check.","id":"CVE-2026-60074"},"products":[],"published":"2026-07-30","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"MIT","name":"AlmaLinux","prefix":"ALSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Red Hat","prefix":"RHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"BSD","name":"Rocky Linux","prefix":"RLSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-02","vendors":[]},"summary":"Attackers can cause CPU exhaustion and denial of service by submitting strings with long whitespace runs to the Date::Manip Perl library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-60075/"}
