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-2026-7040 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: RRWO Text::Minify::XS. 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-2026-7040/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-7040/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-7040","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-7040/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-7040","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jqhf-vv4h-77h2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Perl text minification library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Heap overflow in Text::Minify::XS allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service via malformed UTF-8 input.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"CPANSec","cpe":[{"product":"text\\","vendor":"rrwo"}],"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-176","name":"Improper Handling of Unicode Encoding"},{"id":"CWE-122","name":"Heap-based Buffer Overflow"}],"description":"Text::Minify::XS versions from 0.3.0 before 0.7.8 for Perl have a heap overflow when processing some malformed UTF-8 characters.\n\nThe minify functions mishandled some malformed UTF-8 characters, leading to heap corruption.\n\nNote that the minify_utf8 function is an alias for minify.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Memory corruption in Text::Minify::XS","id":"CVE-2026-7040","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"666ghj MiroFish Werkzeug Debugger PIN console information disclosure","id":"CVE-2026-7041"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"tufantunc ssh-mcp index.ts shell.write command injection","id":"CVE-2026-7039"},"products":["Text::Minify::XS"],"published":"2026-04-27","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"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":"2026-05-01","vendors":["RRWO"]},"summary":"Heap overflow in Text::Minify::XS allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service via malformed UTF-8 input.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-7040/"}
