AI-suggested

Users should upgrade to version 0.3.8 or later once available, as the vulnerability affects versions before 0.3.8. Until a fix is confirmed, avoid processing untrusted input through Net::Statsd::Tiny or implement input validation to reject newline, colon, and pipe characters in metric names and values. Monitor vendor advisories for official fixes.

Description

Net::Statsd::Tiny versions before 0.3.8 for Perl allowed metric injections. The metric names and set values were not checked for newlines, colons or pipes. Metrics generated from untrusted sources could inject additional statsd metrics.
