It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-88815 exists.\n\nAffected product: perl-DBI. 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-2026-88815/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-88815/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-88815","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-88815/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-88815","record":{"aliases":["ALSA-2026:76760","ALSA-2026:76762","ALSA-2026:77576","ALSA-2026:85916","AZL-105212","BELL-CVE-2026-88815","CLSA-2026-1791807966","CLSA-2026-1791814009","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-88815","ECHO-fc84-f286-7f43","GHSA-c8vq-w3wr-6979","MINI-r3h7-42r7-vpgh","RHSA-2026:76760","RHSA-2026:76762","RHSA-2026:77576","RLSA-2026:76760","RLSA-2026:76762","RLSA-2026:77576","RLSA-2026:85916","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-88815"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Perl DBI library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a segmentation fault and denial of service by passing numeric values to the sql_type_cast function in the Perl DBI library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"CPANSec","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.2,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-843","name":"Access of Resource Using Incompatible Type"}],"description":"DBI versions before 1.654 for Perl incorrectly treat numeric values as strings in sql_type_cast_svpv.\n\nWhen casting to SQL_NUMERIC, sql_type_cast_svpv passes the string pointer and length of the SV to grok_number without stringifying it first.
