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-2026-97230 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2026-97230/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97230/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-97230","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97230/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-97230","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-559w-6g2v-jh67"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Perl SSL library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Malicious code in the IO::Socket::SSL::SelfCertificate Perl module executes arbitrary Python scripts from a remote URL, allowing attackers to run code on affected systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"supply_chain"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"CPANSec","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-506","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}],"description":"IO::Socket::SSL::SelfCertificate versions 1.00 for Perl contains malware which executes Python code from an obfuscated URL.\n\nThe generate_certificate runs a Python script saved as a certificate file.
