CVE-2020-36846

A buffer overflow, as described in CVE-2020-8927, exists in the embedded Brotli library.  Versions of IO::Compress::Brotli prior to 0.007 included a version of the brotli library prior to version 1.0.8, where an attacker controlling the input length of a "one-shot" decompression request to a script can trigger a crash, which happens when copying over chunks of data larger than 2 GiB. It is recommended to update your IO::Compress::Brotli module to 0.007 or later. If one cannot update, we recommend to use the "streaming" API as opposed to the "one-shot" API, and impose chunk size limits.

A buffer overflow exists in the Brotli library versions prior to 1.0.8 where an attacker controlling the input length of a "one-shot" decompression request to a script can trigger a crash, which happens when copying over chunks of data larger than 2 GiB. If one cannot update the C library, its authors recommend to use the "streaming" API as opposed to the "one-shot" API, and impose chunk size limits.

Existe un desbordamiento de búfer, como se describe en CVE-2020-8927, en la librería Brotli integrada. Las versiones de IO::Compress::Brotli anteriores a la 0.007 incluían una versión de la librería Brotli anterior a la 1.0.8, donde un atacante que controle la longitud de entrada de una solicitud de descompresión única a un script puede provocar un fallo, lo cual ocurre al copiar fragmentos de datos de más de 2 GiB. Se recomienda actualizar el módulo IO::Compress::Brotli a la versión 0.007 o posterior. Si no se puede actualizar, recomendamos usar la API de streaming en lugar de la API única e imponer límites de tamaño de fragmentos.
