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-2026-8463 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: LEONT Crypt::Argon2. 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-2026-8463/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8463/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-8463","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8463/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-8463","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-8463","GHSA-3p6c-7qjr-35x9","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-8463"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Perl Argon2 library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a crash or leak heap memory by providing empty input to the argon2_verify function in the Crypt::Argon2 Perl library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"integer_overflow"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"CPANSec","cpe":[{"product":"crypt\\","vendor":"leont"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-191","name":"Integer Underflow (Wrap or Wraparound)"},{"id":"CWE-126","name":"Buffer Over-read"}],"description":"Crypt::Argon2 versions from 0.017 before 0.031 for Perl perform a heap out-of-bounds read in argon2_verify on empty encoded input.\n\nThe auto-detect form of argon2_verify passes encoded_len - 1 as the length argument to memchr without checking that encoded_len is non-zero.
