CVE ID         : CVE-2025-40928

Michael Hudak discovered a flaw in libjson-xs-perl, a module for
manipulating JSON-formatted data. An integer buffer overflow causing a
segfault when parsing specially crafted JSON, may allow an attacker to
mount a denial-of-service attack or cause other unspecified impact.

For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed
in version 4.040-1~deb12u1.

For the stable distribution (trixie), this problem has been fixed in
version 4.040-1~deb13u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libjson-xs-perl packages.
