    A flaw was found in perl-file-find-rule. The grep() function within File::Find::Rule versions up to 0.34 is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution if provided with a specially crafted filename. This vulnerability allows an attacker to supply a filename that, when opened, executes arbitrary code via the open() function's mode parameter. Consequently, an attacker can achieve remote code execution by providing a malicious filename.
