What is CVE-2026-45191?

Net::CIDR::Lite for Perl versions before 0.24 are susceptible to an IP Access Control List (ACL) bypass. This vulnerability arises from the library's inadequate handling of extraneous zero characters in CIDR mask values, permitting input forms like '/00' and '/01' to pass validation. These padded values equate to their un-padded counterparts, potentially allowing unauthorized access by misinterpreting the intended IP ACL settings.

Affected Version(s)

Net::CIDR::Lite 0 < 0.24
