        CVE ID:  CVE-2026-57433
  Distribution:  Storable
      Versions:  before 3.41

      MetaCPAN:  https://metacpan.org/dist/Storable

Storable versions before 3.41 for Perl have a signed integer overflow
when deserializing a crafted SX_HOOK record

Description
-----------
Storable versions before 3.41 for Perl have a signed integer overflow
when deserializing a crafted SX_HOOK record.

retrieve_hook_common reads a signed 32-bit item count from an SX_HOOK
record and calls av_extend with that count plus one. A count of I32_MAX
wraps the addition to a negative value.

A crafted blob passed to thaw or retrieve triggers the overflow;
av_extend receives the negative count and dies with a panic,
terminating the deserialization.

Problem types
-------------
- CWE-190 Integer Overflow or Wraparound

Solutions
---------
Upgrade to Storable 3.41 or later.
