Is this bug still actual?
I don't know nor do I care. I am the wrong person to be asked, I don't use rhel and do not maintain any epel-package.
The EPEL-7 build of perl-Plack was done by Emmanuel (eseyman, https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=998221) so maybe he should comment? The CVE is for Plack before 1.0031 (see https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2014-5269) and that build is for perl-Plack 1.0033 so the current EPEL-7 package should be OK. See also Bug #1469031
Ok, I believe it can be closed, but better to have some comments / an approval.
Paul is correct. The EPEL-7 build has never been impacted by this CVE.
