CVE-2025-40930 (2025-09-08)

JSON::SIMD before version 1.07 and earlier for Perl has an integer buffer overflow causing a segfault when parsing crafted JSON, enabling denial-of-service attacks or other unspecified impact.

Changes for version 1.04 - 2023-04-20

  • fix floating point precision issues with -Duselongdouble and -Dusequadmath
  • fix intermittent garbage in floating point numbers from encode with -Dusequadmath (fix taken from Cpanel::JSON::XS ad072b4)
  • fix build issue with "invalid register for .seh_savexmm"
  • drop common::sense as a direct dependency (it's still used via Types::Serialiser, though)
  • fix repository and issue tracker for CPAN (thanks to Gabor Szabo)
