CVE-2026-113811: Algorithm::UrataniTakeda versions from 0.1.5 before 0.1.7 for Perl allow memory exhaustion via a never-cleared failure shift cache in search

CVE-2026-113811 affects Algorithm::UrataniTakeda Perl module versions 0.1.5 through 0.1.6, where a failure shift cache in the search function never clears, enabling an attacker to exhaust memory. Version 0.1.7 or later addresses the vulnerability.

Why it matters: Developers using the vulnerable Algorithm::UrataniTakeda versions in production should upgrade immediately to prevent denial of service attacks via memory exhaustion.
