perl-HTTP-Tiny:
Security Fix(es):
perl-HTTP-Tiny: A vulnerability was found in Tiny, where a Perl core module and standalone CPAN package, does not verify TLS certificates by default. Users need to explicitly enable certificate verification with the verify_SSL=>1 flag to ensure secure HTTPS connections. This oversight can potentially expose applications to man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, where an attacker might intercept and manipulate data transmitted between the client and server.(CVE-2023-31486)
