NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream perl package and not the perl package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

An interaction between the Perl MD5 module (perl-Digest-MD5) and Perl could produce incorrect MD5 checksums for UTF-8 data, which could prevent a system from properly verifying the integrity of the data.
