CVE-2011-4117: The Batch::BatchRun module 1.03 for Perl does not properly handle temporary files.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE concerns a Perl module, Batch::BatchRun 1.03, that mishandles temporary files. Business risk depends on whether the module is installed and used in production automation. The available bundle does not describe impact, exploitability, or a fixed version. Exposure is likely limited to systems running Perl code that depends on Batch::BatchRun version 1.03. The bundle does not identify operating systems, default installations, downstream packages, or internet-facing attack paths. Prioritize confirmation over emergency response. This is old, lacks severity data, and has no cited active exploitation, but unsupported automation dependencies can create avoidable operational risk. Mitigation focus: Inventory Perl dependencies for Batch::BatchRun version 1.03.; Check CPAN RT and project guidance for a fixed release or safe workaround.; Remove or replace the module if it is unused or unsupported..
