AI-suggested
If you cannot patch yet, applications should consider additional validation layers or sanitization of user input before writing to configuration files to mitigate risk.
Description
CallBackery versions prior to 0.62.0 for Perl contain a vulnerability in the createRxValidator function where form field validation patterns are improperly constructed. This allows authenticated users to submit values that should be rejected by the intended pattern checks. Such values may then be written into generated configuration files, potentially leading to security issues related to configuration integrity.
