Description

The Catalyst-Plugin-Static-Simple module before 0.34 for Perl allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files if there is a '.' character anywhere in the pathname, which differs from the intended policy of allowing access only when the filename itself has a '.' character.

Affected configurations

• catalyst-plugin-static-simple project catalyst-plugin-static-simple (< 0.34)
