 **CVE-2026-8376 - Buffer overflow in Perl_study_chunk

 Perl_study_chunk in regcomp_study.c checked the size of the joined
 substring buffer in characters rather than bytes. On 32-bit builds, this
 can lead to an integer overflow of the size of the buffer leading to out-
 of-bounds writes.

 **CVE-2026-57432 - Buffer overflow in S_measure_struct

 If you call pack or unpack to operate on a structure whose computed size
 is too large to fit in memory, an integer overflow could happen that would
 result in a buffer overflow. This usually happens as a result of embedding
 a large number as the repeat count for an item.

 **CVE-2026-13221 - Regex trie 16-bit field overflow

 The trie optimization in the regex engine could overflow in an alternation
 with more than ~65k branches. This could cause both false positives and
 false negatives on such regular expressions.
