How to fix?
Upgrade Debian:11 perl to version 5.10.1-17 or higher.
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:11 relevant fixed versions and status.
The multipart_init function in (1) CGI.pm before 3.50 and (2) Simple.pm in CGI::Simple 1.112 and earlier uses a hardcoded value of the MIME boundary string in multipart/x-mixed-replace content, which allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP response splitting attacks via crafted input that contains this value, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-3172.
