CVE-2026-110754

Text::CSV_XS versions before 1.65 for Perl leak the parsed fields of a record that fails to parse in getline. getline collects the fields of a record into a new array and returns a reference to it only when the parse succeeds. When the record has a syntax error, getline returns undef and never frees the array or the fields parsed before the error. A long-running process parsing untrusted CSV retains every malformed record it is sent, so repeated malformed input exhausts its memory.

getline collects the fields of a record into a new array and returns a reference to it only when the parse succeeds. When the record has a syntax error, getline returns undef and never frees the array or the fields parsed before the error.

A long-running process parsing untrusted CSV retains every malformed record it is sent, so repeated malformed input exhausts its memory.

Text::CSV_XS versions before 1.65 for Perl allow memory exhaustion by allocating one entry per index of an RFC 7111 selector in fragment. (CVE-2026-110752) Text::CSV_XS versions from 1.46 before 1.65 for Perl have a use-after-free of bind_columns variables when skip_empty_rows skips an empty line in getline. (CVE-2026-110753) Text::CSV_XS versions before 1.65 for Perl leak the parsed fields of a record that fails to parse in getline. (CVE-2026-110754) Text::CSV_XS versions before 1.65 for Perl allow quadratic CPU use by copying the unparsed remainder per record of CR-only input in getline. (CVE-2026-110755) Text::CSV_XS versions before 1.65 for Perl drop the end of a record and its line ending when a UTF-8 flagged field precedes invalid UTF-8 bytes in print. (CVE-2026-110756) Text::CSV_XS versions before 1.65 for Perl allow record splitting by writing strings used as numbers without quotes in combine. (CVE-2026-110757) Text::CSV_XS versions before 1.65 for Perl read before the start of an all-blank field under allow_whitespace in strip_trail_whitespace. (CVE-2026-110758) Text::CSV_XS versions before 1.65 for Perl return a 0xFF byte that is not in the input for an empty last field followed by a lone CR in parse. (CVE-2026-110759)

These are all security issues fixed in the perl-Text-CSV_XS-1.650.0-1.1 package on the GA media of openSUSE Tumbleweed.

This update for perl-Text-CSV_XS fixes the following issues:

• CVE-2026-110752: unclamped RFC 7111 selector range pre-allocation in fragment() can cause memory exhaustion via large index ranges (bsc#1286138).
• CVE-2026-110754: unfreed field array memory leak on getline() syntax errors can lead to process memory exhaustion via malformed CSV input (bsc#1286188).
• CVE-2026-110755: quadratic buffer copying overhead during CR-only line parsing in getline() can cause CPU exhaustion and denial of service (bsc#1286198).
• CVE-2026-110756: invalid UTF-8 bytes during buffer flushes in print() can cause silent field truncation (bsc#1286130).
• CVE-2026-110757: unquoted writing of numeric-flagged strings containing newlines in combine() and print() can cause record splitting and row injection (bsc#1286191).
• CVE-2026-110758: missing buffer start boundary check in strip_trail_whitespace under allow_whitespace can cause heap out-of-bounds read and memory corruption (bsc#1286137).
• CVE-2026-110759: improper end-of-file marker handling after a lone CR can cause Text::CSV_XS to inject an unexpected 0xFF byte (bsc#1286128).
