Security update for perl-YAML-Syck

This update for perl-YAML-Syck fixes the following issues:

Changes in perl-YAML-Syck:

  • updated to 1.470.0 (1.47) [Security]

    • Fix four libsyck memory-safety CVEs reachable from the default YAML::Syck::Load() path on untrusted input with no special flags (reported by Paul Johnson via CPANSec, PR #213):
      • CVE-2026-57075 (CWE-125): out-of-bounds read in the base64 decoder caused by signed-char indexing of the decode table on !!binary input bsc#1271632
      • CVE-2026-57076 (CWE-416): use-after-free of an anchor key string shared between the node and the anchors table bsc#1271633
      • CVE-2026-57077 (CWE-125): one-byte out-of-bounds read in the lexer newline scan during block-scalar parsing (incomplete-fix follow-on to CVE-2025-11683) bsc#1271634
      • CVE-2026-13713 (CWE-416/CWE-415): use-after-free / double-free of an anchor node on anchor redefinition, a remote-crash DoS from a 7-byte input bsc#1271631
    • Harden syck_base64dec() to bounds-check each read so it cannot run past a non-NUL-terminated input buffer (defense-in-depth for callers passing raw buffers; PR #213) [Bug Fixes]
    • Fix: enforce $MaxDepth on Load to prevent C-stack exhaustion from deeply nested YAML/JSON input; YAML::Syck and JSON::Syck Load now default to 512, matching Dump (PR #204)
    • Fix: emit YAML canonical forms (.nan, .inf, -.inf) for NaN/Inf values in Dump so they roundtrip with ImplicitTyping instead of reloading as plain strings (PR #201) [Maintenance]
    • CI: add an AddressSanitizer job that builds the XS with -fsanitize=address and runs the suite plus the CVE trigger inputs to catch libsyck memory-safety defects; de-pin the libasan version so it tracks the runner's GCC (PR #213)

  • updated to 1.460.0 (1.46) [Bug Fixes]

    • Fix: preserve string nature of numeric-looking values in Dump; pure strings (POK only, no IOK/NOK) are now quoted to maintain roundtrip fidelity (GH #199, PR #200)
    • Fix: accept trailing commas in flow sequences and mappings ([a, b,] and {a: 1,}), valid per YAML 1.0/1.1/1.2 spec (GH #195, PR #196)

    [Maintenance]

    • CI: upgrade install-with-cpm to v2 for compatibility with Perl versions prior to 5.24 in perldocker containers (GH #197, PR #198)
    • Clean up MANIFEST.SKIP: add #!include_default, remove redundant entries, exclude .claude/ from distribution

Описание

YAML::Syck versions before 1.36 for Perl has missing null-terminators which causes out-of-bounds read and potential information disclosure Missing null terminators in token.c leads to but-of-bounds read which allows adjacent variable to be read The issue is seen with complex YAML files with a hash of all keys and empty values. There is no indication that the issue leads to accessing memory outside that allocated to the module.

Описание

YAML::Syck versions before 1.47 for Perl allow a use-after-free and double-free via an anchor node freed while still on the parser value stack. In the bundled libsyck, when an anchor name is redefined or removed, syck_hdlr_add_anchor and syck_hdlr_remove_anchor free the node stored under that name with syck_free_node. That node can still be live on the parser's value stack, so syck_hdlr_add_node reaches it again and frees it a second time. On a normal build the 48-byte node chunk is freed twice and the interpreter aborts. Anchors need no special flags, so this is reached on the default Load path, and a 7-byte document that redefines an anchor triggers it. Any caller that runs Load or LoadFile on an untrusted document that redefines an anchor mid-parse crashes the interpreter, a denial of service.

YAML::Syck versions before 1.47 for Perl allow an out-of-bounds read via a signed-char lookup-table index in syck_base64dec. The base64 decoder in the bundled libsyck indexes the 256-entry static table b64_xtable with a signed char, so any !!binary byte >= 0x80 sign-extends to a negative index and reads before the table. The decoder receives the raw bytes of any !!binary node, a standard YAML type not gated by $LoadBlessed or $LoadCode, so it is reached on the default Load path. Any caller that runs Load or LoadFile on an untrusted document containing a !!binary scalar with a high-bit byte triggers the read, and the value read can surface in the decoded result.

Описание

YAML::Syck versions before 1.47 for Perl allow a heap use-after-free via an anchor name reused as an anchors-table key in syck_hdlr_add_anchor. In the bundled libsyck an anchor name allocated by syck_strndup is stored both as node->anchor, freed when the node is freed, and as the key in the parser's anchors table. Freeing the node frees the shared key, and a later anchor redefinition makes st_delete compare against the freed key, so st_strcmp reads freed heap memory. Anchors are a standard YAML feature and need no special flags, so this is reached on the default Load path. Any caller that runs Load or LoadFile on an untrusted document that redefines an anchor reaches the read of freed memory.

YAML::Syck versions before 1.47 for Perl allow an out-of-bounds read via an unbounded newline scan in newline_len. In the bundled libsyck newline_len and is_newline dereference the scan pointer, and the following byte for a "\r\n" pair, with no NUL-terminator or bounds check. During block-scalar lexing at a document boundary the scan runs one byte past the heap lexer buffer. This is an incomplete fix of CVE-2025-11683, on a lexer path the earlier fix did not cover. Any caller that runs Load or LoadFile on an untrusted document with a block scalar at a document boundary reaches the over-read.
