CVE-2021-29662
The Data::Validate::IP module through 0.29 for Perl does not properly consider extraneous zero characters at the beginning of an IP address string, which (in some situations) allows attackers to bypass access control that is based on IP addresses.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.22%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
