            Bug ID: 1209918
           Summary: perl-Module-Signature: arbitrary modules loading in
                    some circumstances
           Product: Security Response
         Component: vulnerability
          Keywords: Security
          Severity: medium
          Priority: medium
          Assignee: security-response-team at redhat.com

Module::Signature before version 0.75 has been loading several modules at
runtime inside the extracted module directory. Modules like Text::Diff are not
guaranteed to be available on all platforms and could be added to a malicious
module so that they would load from the '.' path in @INC.

Upstream fix:
https://github.com/audreyt/module-signature/commit/c41e8885b862b9fce2719449bc9336f0bea658ef
