How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Echo:latest libcrypt-openssl-pkcs12-perl.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libcrypt-openssl-pkcs12-perl package and not the libcrypt-openssl-pkcs12-perl package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

Crypt::OpenSSL::PKCS12 versions before 1.96 for Perl permits a heap OOB read in print_attribute UTF8STRING path.

print_attribute() copies a UTF8STRING ASN.1 attribute value into a heap buffer sized exactly to its declared length via strncpy, leaving no NUL terminator. Downstream callers run strlen() on the result and pass the inflated length to newSVpvn(), copying attacker-influenced adjacent heap bytes into a Perl scalar.
