CVE-2026-46719: Net::Statsd::Lite versions before 0.9.0 for Perl allowed metric injections

Net::Statsd::Lite versions before 0.9.0 for Perl allowed metric injections. The metric names were not checked for newlines, colons or pipes. Metrics generated from untrusted sources could inject additional statsd metrics.

Security readout for executives and security teams

A Perl metrics library could let untrusted input create extra, unintended StatsD metrics. This can pollute monitoring data and potentially mislead operational decisions. The issue affects Net::Statsd::Lite before version 0.9.0. It is a medium-risk data integrity concern, not a remote code execution issue based on the provided sources. Exposure is likely limited to Perl applications using Net::Statsd::Lite before 0.9.0 and deriving metric names from user-controlled or otherwise untrusted input. Systems using static, trusted metric names are less likely to be affected, though version verification is still warranted. Treat as a moderate-priority dependency update for systems where monitoring accuracy matters. Prioritize externally exposed services or services using customer-controlled values in metric names. The main business risk is corrupted observability data rather than system takeover. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Net::Statsd::Lite to version 0.9.0 or later.; Review vendor release notes and patch details before deployment.; Avoid constructing metric names directly from untrusted input..
