cPanel CVE-2026-110685
CVE-2026-110685 is one of a coordinated set of fixes in Cpanel::JSON::XS for Perl: versions before 4.80 — leak the decoded arguments of a tagged value when its thaw method dies in decode_tag. The corrected build is Cpanel::JSON::XS 4.80, delivered to cPanel & WHM servers through the standard update channel.
Was das unter einer SharedLicense-Lizenz bedeutet
Parsing untrusted JSON with the affected Cpanel::JSON::XS builds is the exposure: CWE-401 in the advisory's own data, CVSS 9.1 — practical risk ranges from resource exhaustion to memory corruption.
Cpanel::JSON::XS versions before 4.80 for Perl leak the decoded arguments of a tagged value when its THAW method dies in decode_tag.
With allow_tags, a tagged value’s class name and argument array are decoded and passed to the class’s THAW method. Both are released only after THAW returns, so a THAW that dies leaves the whole decoded argument structure allocated.
Each rejected document leaks data of a size the sender chooses, so a process that catches the error and keeps running exhausts its memory.
