What is CVE-2011-10007?

The File::Find::Rule module for Perl versions up to 0.34 is susceptible to Arbitrary Code Execution due to a flaw in how filenames are handled by the grep() function. When provided with a crafted filename, the module invokes the 2-argument form of open(), allowing an attacker to specify the MODE parameter. This oversight enables the execution of arbitrary commands, posing a significant security risk. Users are urged to review and update their applications to mitigate this vulnerability.
