Subject: Medium severity flaw with Perl 5
I recently discovered that Perl 5 interpreter is vulnerable to memory
corruption when large values are supplied to the x operator.
After discussions with the vendor, CVE-2012-5195 was assigned to this
vulnerability.
I know Red Hat and Debian have picked it up, but I'm not sure about other
vendors.
