There are some internal API's related to globnames and package names that will cause Perl to segfault if you feed them broken utf8 marked as utf8. This was discovered by AFL fuzzing of Sereal. Since these are internal API's it is arguable its the callers responsibility to ensure the utf8 is valid. But its also arguable that perl should choke/refuse such strings anyway. I dont care either way, I am just curious if people think this is bug-report worthy. If so I will file a more detailed ticket. If not maybe ill file a doc patch for the functions I know about. Anybody care to express an opinion? Yves -- perl -Mre=debug -e "/just|another|perl|hacker/"Thread Next
