How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.7 perl-Net-CIDR-Lite to version 0.21-150100.6.8.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream perl-Net-CIDR-Lite package and not the perl-Net-CIDR-Lite package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Net::CIDR::Lite versions before 0.24 for Perl does not properly validate IP address and CIDR mask inputs, which may allow IP ACL bypass.

Inputs containing a trailing newline or non-ASCII digit characters pass the validators but are then re-encoded by the parser to a different address than the input string spelled. find() and bin_find() can match or miss addresses as a result.

Example:

my $cidr = Net::CIDR::Lite->new(); $cidr->add("::1\n/128"); $cidr->find("::1a"); # incorrectly returns true
