core/pkgs/by-name/pe/perl/perl-modules/Data-UUID-CVE-2013-4184.patch

Eliminate use of state/node files in temp directory, which are a security concern due to insecure writing of State/Node files in a temporary directory, with predictable filenames, with a possible symlink attack.

Fixes CVE-2013-4184

-B<Makefile.PL> writes the Makefile for the Data::UUID library. It is configured

-Unless given, default values are used. In any case the values are printed for

+B<Makefile.PL> writes the Makefile for the Data::UUID library.
 
 Additionally, the usual EU::MM options are processed, see

-NOTE: This module is designed to save its state information in a permanent 
-storage location. The installation script (i.e. Makefile.PL) prompts for 
-a directory name to use as a storage location for state file and defaults 
-this directory to "/var/tmp" if no directory name is provided. 
-The installation script will not accept names of directories that do not
-exist, however, it will take the locations, which the installing user
-has no write permissions to. In this case, the state information will not be
-saved, which will maximize the chances of generating duplicate UUIDs.
