Upgrade Debian:11 perl to version 5.14.2-16 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.
CGI.pm module before 3.63 for Perl does not properly escape newlines in (1) Set-Cookie or (2) P3P headers, which might allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary headers into responses from applications that use CGI.pm.
