Hi,

The following vulnerabilities were published for libcrypt-openssl-x509-perl.

CVE-2026-58101[0]:
| Crypt::OpenSSL::X509 versions before 2.1.3 for Perl allow denial of
| service via NULL pointer dereference.  X509V3_EXT_d2i(ext) returns
| NULL when an extension's DER value fails to parse. basicC,
| ia5string, and auth_att dereference its result without a NULL check.
| keyid_data also dereferences akid->keyid, which is NULL for an empty
| AKI SEQUENCE (DER 30 00) even when the parse succeeds.  A caller
| invoking an affected helper on an extension from an untrusted
| certificate triggers a SIGSEGV that crashes the Perl process.


CVE-2026-58102[1]:
| Crypt::OpenSSL::X509 versions before 2.1.3 for Perl allow a heap
| out-of-bounds read via a long certificate extension OID in hv_exts.
| When building the extension hash (via extensions(),
| extensions_by_long_name(), extensions_by_oid(), or
| has_extension_oid()), the code passes OBJ_obj2txt()'s return value
| as the hash-key length; because that value is the OID's full text
| length rather than the bytes written to the fixed-size buffer (129
| bytes), an OID whose text is longer than the 129-byte buffer causes
| a read past the allocation, exposing adjacent heap memory as the
| returned hash key. extensions_by_name() uses the static shortname
| path and is not affected.


If you fix the vulnerabilities please also make sure to include the
