Hi,
The following vulnerability was published for libunicode-linebreak-perl.
CVE-2026-8594[0]:
| Text::LineFold versions through 2019.001 for Perl duplicate the
| output based on the number of special break characters.
| Text::LineFold splits the input string by specific line break
| characters (such as VT, FF and others) into segments, but applies
| the break function to the entire string, not just the segment. A
| side effect of this is that the full input can be duplicated for
| each segment. Besides being incorrect, this can lead to unexpected
| resource consumption and possible denial of service. Note that
| Text::LineFold is part of the Unicode-LineBreak distribution, which
| may have a higher version number than the module.
If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
