How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Echo:latest libextutils-typemaps-default-perl.

NVD Description

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

ExtUtils::Typemaps::STL::String versions before 1.06 for Perl T_STD_STRING typemap may read the SV length before stringifying the argument.

The typemap uses

$var = std::string( SvPV_nolen($arg), SvCUR($arg) )

However, evaluation order for C++ arguments is not specified, and some compilers may produce code that evalutes SvCUR($arg) first.

When $arg is not a string (for example, an interger, number or a reference) then SvCUR will return an invalid value, and the program may abort or segfault.
