CVE-2013-1667  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-399  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Centos:6 perl-parent to version 1:0.221-130.el6_4 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream perl-parent package and not the perl-parent package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The rehash mechanism in Perl 5.8.2 through 5.16.x allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and crash) via a crafted hash key.
