Beginning in PathTools 3.47 and/or perl 5.20.0, the File::Spec::canonpath() routine returned untained strings even if passed tainted input. This defect undermines the guarantee of taint propagation, which is sometimes used to ensure that unvalidated user input does not reach sensitive code. This defect was found and reported by David Golden of MongoDB, and a patch was provided by Tony Cook.

Subject: [perl #126862] ensure File::Spec::canonpath() preserves taint
|
|
|
|
Previously the unix specific XS implementation of canonpath() would
|
|
return an untainted path when supplied a tainted path.
|
|
|
|
For the empty string case, newSVpvs() already sets taint as needed on
|
|
its result.
