Doc Text:
A flaw was found in perl-DBI, a database interface for Perl. This vulnerability arises when the DBI library processes inconsistent data, specifically when a statement handle lacks fields but is associated with a non-empty data row. This inconsistency can cause the internal row-buffer to attempt reading from an invalid memory location, an out-of-bounds read. An attacker could exploit this by supplying malformed metadata and rows to the `prepare` method, potentially leading to application instability or a denial of service.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-07-14 16:02:23 UTC 
DBI versions before 1.651 for Perl do not enforce statement handle consistency with the row.

When the statement handle had no fields but the source row was non-empty, the internal row-buffer helper would read from a negative array index.

This could be triggered by a caller supplying inconsistent metadata and rows to the prepare method.
