NAME
perldelta - what is new for perl v5.26.1
DESCRIPTION
This document describes differences between the 5.26.0 release and the

perl5260delta, which describes differences between 5.24.0 and 5.26.0.
Security
[CVE-2017-12837] Heap buffer overflow in regular expression compiler
Compiling certain regular expression patterns with the case-insensitive
modifier could cause a heap buffer overflow and crash perl. This has
now been fixed. [perl #131582]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131582>
[CVE-2017-12883] Buffer over-read in regular expression parser
For certain types of syntax error in a regular expression pattern, the
error message could either contain the contents of a random, possibly
large, chunk of memory, or could crash perl. This has now been fixed.
[perl #131598] <https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131598>
[CVE-2017-12814] $ENV{$key} stack buffer overflow on Windows
A possible stack buffer overflow in the %ENV code on Windows has been
fixed by removing the buffer completely since it was superfluous
anyway. [perl #131665]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131665>
Incompatible Changes
There are no changes intentionally incompatible with 5.26.0. If any
exist, they are bugs, and we request that you submit a report. See
"Reporting Bugs" below.
Modules and Pragmata
Updated Modules and Pragmata
* base has been upgraded from version 2.25 to 2.26.
The effects of dotless @INC on this module have been limited by the
introduction of a more refined and accurate solution for removing
'.' from @INC while reducing the false positives.
* charnames has been upgraded from version 1.44 to 1.45.
* Module::CoreList has been upgraded from version 5.20170530 to
5.20170922_26.
Platform Support
Platform-Specific Notes
FreeBSD
* Building with g++ on FreeBSD-11.0 has been fixed. [perl
#131337]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131337>
Windows
* Support for compiling perl on Windows using Microsoft Visual
Studio 2017 (containing Visual C++ 14.1) has been added.
* Building XS modules with GCC 6 in a 64-bit build of Perl failed
due to incorrect mapping of "strtoll" and "strtoull". This has
now been fixed. [perl #131726]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131726> [cpan
#121683]
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=121683> [cpan
#122353]
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=122353>
Selected Bug Fixes
* Several built-in functions previously had bugs that could cause
them to write to the internal stack without allocating room for the
item being written. In rare situations, this could have led to a
crash. These bugs have now been fixed, and if any similar bugs are
introduced in future, they will be detected automatically in
debugging builds. [perl #131732]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131732>
* Using a symbolic ref with postderef syntax as the key in a hash
lookup was yielding an assertion failure on debugging builds.
[perl #131627]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131627>
* List assignment ("aassign") could in some rare cases allocate an
entry on the mortal stack and leave the entry uninitialized. [perl
#131570] <https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131570>
* Attempting to apply an attribute to an "our" variable where a
function of that name already exists could result in a NULL pointer
being supplied where an SV was expected, crashing perl. [perl
#131597] <https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131597>
* The code that vivifies a typeglob out of a code ref made some false
assumptions that could lead to a crash in cases such as $::{"A"} =
sub {}; \&{"A"}. This has now been fixed. [perl #131085]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131085>
* "my_atof2" no longer reads beyond the terminating NUL, which
previously occurred if the decimal point is immediately before the
NUL. [perl #131526]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131526>
* Occasional "Malformed UTF-8 character" crashes in "s//" on utf8
strings have been fixed. [perl #131575]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131575>
* "perldoc -f s" now finds "s///". [perl #131371]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131371>
* Some erroneous warnings after utf8 conversion have been fixed.
[perl #131190]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131190>
* The "jmpenv" frame to catch Perl exceptions is set up lazily, and
this used to be a bit too lazy. The catcher is now set up earlier,
preventing some possible crashes. [perl #105930]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=105930>
* Spurious "Assuming NOT a POSIX class" warnings have been removed.
[perl #131522]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131522>
Acknowledgements
Perl 5.26.1 represents approximately 4 months of development since Perl
5.26.0 and contains approximately 8,900 lines of changes across 85

Excluding auto-generated files, documentation and release tools, there
were approximately 990 lines of changes to 38 .pm, .t, .c and .h files.
Perl continues to flourish into its third decade thanks to a vibrant
community of users and developers. The following people are known to

The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically
generated from version control history. In particular, it does not
include the names of the (very much appreciated) contributors who
reported issues to the Perl bug tracker.
Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN
modules included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN
community for helping Perl to flourish.

Reporting Bugs
If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the perl bug
database at <https://rt.perl.org/> . There may also be information at
<http://www.perl.org/> , the Perl Home Page.
If you believe you have an unreported bug, please run the perlbug
program included with your release. Be sure to trim your bug down to a
tiny but sufficient test case. Your bug report, along with the output
of "perl -V", will be sent off to perlbug%perl.org@localhost to be analysed by
the Perl porting team.
If the bug you are reporting has security implications which make it
inappropriate to send to a publicly archived mailing list, then see
"SECURITY VULNERABILITY CONTACT INFORMATION" in perlsec for details of
how to report the issue.
Give Thanks
If you wish to thank the Perl 5 Porters for the work we had done in
Perl 5, you can do so by running the "perlthanks" program:
perlthanks
This will send an email to the Perl 5 Porters list with your show of
thanks.
