✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 Workaround: Do not allow untrusted input to control dbm_type or dbm_mldbm (including DSN fragments). Prefer not exposing DBD::DBM connect parameters to less-trusted parties.
