CVE-2026-8722

Net::Async::Statsd::Client versions through 0.005 for Perl allow metric injections.

MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 0.20%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.20%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Net::Async::Statsd::Client versions through 0.005 for Perl allow metric injections. The metric names are not checked for newlines, colons or pipes. Metrics generated from untrusted sources could inject additional statsd metrics.
