+Package: perl (CGI.pm)
+Vulnerability: cross site scripting
+OpenPKG Specific: no
+
+Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
+OpenPKG CURRENT <= perl-5.8.0-20030903 >= perl-5.8.0-20030915
+OpenPKG 1.3 <= perl-5.8.0-1.3.0 >= perl-5.8.0-1.3.1
+OpenPKG 1.2 <= perl-5.8.0-1.2.0 >= perl-5.8.0-1.2.1
+
+Dependent Packages: none
+
+Description:
+ This message is a continuation of OpenPKG-SA-2003.036-perl-www [0].
+ The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the
+ id CAN-2003-0615 [1] to the problem described. This document also
+ outlines a important problematic regarding the native load order of
+ perl modules.
+
+ The CGI.pm module not only comes with the "perl-www" package but a
+ ancient version 2.81 is also embedded into "perl". The corrected
+ packages mentioned above have the official fix backported to the
+ embedded version.
+
+ Be aware that all releases of OpenPKG up to and including 1.3 use
+ Perl's native load order of modules. Embedded modules are preferred
+ over additional modules. This means that CGI.pm embedded into the
+ "perl" package is loaded before the sibling from the additional
+ "perl-www" package is found. This inhibits the use and correction of
+ additional modules with same name as embedded ones.
+
+ It should be noted that beginning with perl-5.8.0-20030903 the load
+ order is patched to prefer additional modules [2]. There are no plans
+ modifiying the module load order of the "perl" package in existing
+ releases. Although more intuitive it would change existing behaviour
+ and is likely to break existing installations. During the support
+ lifecycle security advisories and corrected packages will be issued
+ for both, embedded and additional packages.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q
+ perl". If you have the "perl" package installed and its version is
+ affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it
+ (see Solution). [3][4]
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
+ binary RPM [4]. For the current release OpenPKG 1.3, perform the
+ following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
+ other releases adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/1.3/UPD
+ ftp> get perl-5.8.0-1.3.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig perl-5.8.0-1.3.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild perl-5.8.0-1.3.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/perl-5.8.0-1.3.1.*.rpm
