A vulnerability has been found and corrected in perl-libwww-perl:
lwp-download in libwww-perl before 5.835 does not reject downloads to filenames that begin with a . (dot) character, which allows remote servers to create or overwrite files via (1) a 3xx redirect to a URL with a crafted filename or (2) a Content-Disposition header that suggests a crafted filename, and possibly execute arbitrary code as a consequence of writing to a dotfile in a home directory (CVE-2010-2253). Packages for 2008.0 and 2009.0 are provided as of the Extended Maintenance Program.
