Plack::Middleware::Statsd versions before 0.9.0 for Perl may leak user
IP addresses

Description
-----------
Plack::Middleware::Statsd versions before 0.9.0 for Perl may leak user
IP addresses.

If the communication channel to the statsd daemon is not secured (for
example, by sending UDP packets to a host on another network), then
users' IP addresses may be leaked.

Since version 0.9.0, the IP address is no longer logged to statsd
unless configured. When configured, an HMAC signature of the IP address
is logged instead.

Problem types
-------------
- CWE-319 Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information

Workarounds
-----------
Use a statsd daemon on the same host or through a secure communications
channel.

Solutions
---------
Upgrade to version 0.9.0 or later.
