Data-FormValidator 1.5 Deleted
Security Advisories
CVE-2011-2201
The Data::FormValidator module 4.66 and earlier for Perl, when untaint_all_constraints is enabled, does not properly preserve the taint attribute of data, which might allow remote attackers to bypass the taint protection mechanism via form input.

Kwalitee Issues
- has_meta_yml
-
Add a META.yml to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it.
- has_human_readable_license
-
Add a section called "LICENSE" to the documentation, or add a file named LICENSE to the distribution.
- has_license_in_source_file
-
Add =head1 LICENSE and the text of the license to the main module in your code.
- manifest_matches_dist
-
Run a proper command ("make manifest" or "./Build manifest", maybe with a force option), or use a distribution builder to generate the MANIFEST. Or update MANIFEST manually.
Error:
- MANIFEST (6) does not match dist (9):
- Missing in MANIFEST: README, t/2_code_ref.t, t/3_dependency.t
- main_module_version_matches_dist_version
-
Make sure that the main module name and version are the same of the distribution.
- has_meta_json
-
Add a META.json to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it.
- meta_yml_has_license
-
Define the license if you are using in Build.PL. If you are using MakeMaker (Makefile.PL) you should upgrade to ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 6.31.
- has_known_license_in_source_file
-
Add =head1 LICENSE and/or the proper text of the well-known license to the main module in your code.
- use_warnings
-
Add 'use warnings' (or its equivalents) to all modules, or convince us that your favorite module is well-known enough and people can easily see the modules warn when something bad happens.
Error: Data::FormValidator
- has_separate_license_file
-
This is not a critical issue. Currently mainly informative for the CPANTS authors. It might be removed later.
