+
+perl5283delta - what is new for perl v5.28.3
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This document describes differences between the 5.28.2 release and the 5.28.3
+release.
+
+If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.28.1, first read
+L<perl5282delta>, which describes differences between 5.28.1 and 5.28.2.

+=head2 [CVE-2020-10543] Buffer overflow caused by a crafted regular expression
+
+A signed C<size_t> integer overflow in the storage space calculations for
+nested regular expression quantifiers could cause a heap buffer overflow in
+Perl's regular expression compiler that overwrites memory allocated after the
+regular expression storage space with attacker supplied data.
+
+The target system needs a sufficient amount of memory to allocate partial
+expansions of the nested quantifiers prior to the overflow occurring. This
+requirement is unlikely to be met on 64-bit systems.
+
+Discovered by: ManhND of The Tarantula Team, VinCSS (a member of Vingroup).
+
+=head2 [CVE-2020-10878] Integer overflow via malformed bytecode produced by a crafted regular expression
+
+Integer overflows in the calculation of offsets between instructions for the
+regular expression engine could cause corruption of the intermediate language
+state of a compiled regular expression. An attacker could abuse this behaviour
+to insert instructions into the compiled form of a Perl regular expression.
+
+Discovered by: Hugo van der Sanden and Slaven Rezic.
+
+=head2 [CVE-2020-12723] Buffer overflow caused by a crafted regular expression
+
+Recursive calls to C<S_study_chunk()> by Perl's regular expression compiler to
+optimize the intermediate language representation of a regular expression could
+cause corruption of the intermediate language state of a compiled regular
+expression.
+
+Discovered by: Sergey Aleynikov.
+
+=head2 Additional Note
+
+An application written in Perl would only be vulnerable to any of the above
+flaws if it evaluates regular expressions supplied by the attacker. Evaluating
+regular expressions in this fashion is known to be dangerous since the regular
+expression engine does not protect against denial of service attacks in this
+usage scenario.
+
+=head1 Incompatible Changes
+
+There are no changes intentionally incompatible with Perl 5.28.2. If any
+exist, they are bugs, and we request that you submit a report. See

+=head1 Acknowledgements
+
+Perl 5.28.3 represents approximately 13 months of development since Perl 5.28.2
+and contains approximately 3,100 lines of changes across 48 files from 16
+authors.
+
+Excluding auto-generated files, documentation and release tools, there were
+approximately 1,700 lines of changes to 9 .pm, .t, .c and .h files.
+
+Perl continues to flourish into its fourth decade thanks to a vibrant community
+of users and developers. The following people are known to have contributed
+the improvements that became Perl 5.28.3:
+
+Chris 'BinGOs' Williams, Dan Book, Hugo van der Sanden, James E Keenan, John
+Lightsey, Karen Etheridge, Karl Williamson, Matthew Horsfall, Max Maischein,
+Nicolas R., Renee Baecker, Sawyer X, Steve Hay, Tom Hukins, Tony Cook, Zak B.
+Elep.
+
+The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically generated
+from version control history. In particular, it does not include the names of
+the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to the Perl bug
+tracker.
+
+Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules
+included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for
+helping Perl to flourish.
+
+For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please see
+the F<AUTHORS> file in the Perl source distribution.
+
+=head1 Reporting Bugs
+
+If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the perl bug database at
+L<https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>. There may also be information at
+L<https://www.perl.org/>, the Perl Home Page.
+
+If you believe you have an unreported bug, please open an issue at
+L<https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>. Be sure to trim your bug down to a
+tiny but sufficient test case.
+
+If the bug you are reporting has security implications which make it
+inappropriate to send to a public issue tracker, then see
+L<perlsec/SECURITY VULNERABILITY CONTACT INFORMATION> for details of how to
+report the issue.
+
+=head1 Give Thanks
+
+If you wish to thank the Perl 5 Porters for the work we had done in Perl 5, you
+can do so by running the C<perlthanks> program:
+
+ perlthanks
+
+This will send an email to the Perl 5 Porters list with your show of thanks.
