A flaw was found in Perl's CPAN, which doesn't check TLS certificates when downloading content. This happens due to `verify_SSL` missing when suing the `HTTP::Tiny` library during the connection. This may allow an attacker to inject into the network path and perform a Man-In-The-Middle attack, causing confidentiality or integrity issues. perl: CPAN.pm does not verify TLS certificates when downloading distributions over HTTPS The CVSS score(s) listed for this vulnerability do not reflect the associated product's status, and are included for informational purposes to better understand the severity of this vulnerability.
