+From 87f42aa0e0096e9a346c9672aa3a0bd3bef8c1dd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

+Subject: [PATCH] CVE-2024-56406: Heap-buffer-overflow with tr//
+
+This was due to underallocating needed space.  If the translation forces
+something to become UTF-8 that is initially bytes, that UTF-8 could
+now require two bytes where previously a single one would do.
+
+(cherry picked from commit f93109c8a6950aafbd7488d98e112552033a3686)
+
+CVE: CVE-2024-56406
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/Perl/perl5/commit/87f42aa0e0096e9a346c9672aa3a0bd3bef8c1dd]
