+Integer arithmetic in \f(CW\*(C`Perl_my_setenv()\*(C'\fR could wrap when the combined length
+of the environment variable name and value exceeded around 0x7fffffff. This
+could lead to writing beyond the end of an allocated buffer with attacker

+Perl 5.28 introduced an \f(CW\*(C`index()\*(C'\fR optimization when comparing to \-1 (or
+indirectly, e.g. >= 0). When this optimization was triggered inside a \f(CW\*(C`when\*(C'\fR

+has now been fixed.

+Perl 5.28.1 represents approximately 5 months of development since Perl 5.28.0
+and contains approximately 6,100 lines of changes across 44 files from 12
+authors.
+.PP
+Excluding auto-generated files, documentation and release tools, there were
+approximately 700 lines of changes to 12 .pm, .t, .c and .h files.
+.PP
+Perl continues to flourish into its fourth decade thanks to a vibrant community
+of users and developers. The following people are known to have contributed
+the improvements that became Perl 5.28.1:
+.PP
+Aaron Crane, Abigail, Chris 'BinGOs' Williams, Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker, David
+Mitchell, James E Keenan, John \s-1SJ\s0 Anderson, Karen Etheridge, Karl Williamson,
+Sawyer X, Steve Hay, Tony Cook.
+.PP
+The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically generated
+from version control history. In particular, it does not include the names of
+the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to the Perl bug
+tracker.
+.PP
+Many of the changes included in this version originated in the \s-1CPAN\s0 modules
+included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire \s-1CPAN\s0 community for
+helping Perl to flourish.
+.PP
+For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please see

+.SH "Reporting Bugs"
+.IX Header "Reporting Bugs"
+If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the perl bug database
+at <https://rt.perl.org/> . There may also be information at
+<http://www.perl.org/> , the Perl Home Page.
+.PP
+If you believe you have an unreported bug, please run the perlbug program
+included with your release. Be sure to trim your bug down to a tiny but
+sufficient test case. Your bug report, along with the output of \f(CW\*(C`perl \-V\*(C'\fR,
+will be sent off to perlbug@perl.org to be analysed by the Perl porting team.
+.PP
+If the bug you are reporting has security implications which make it
+inappropriate to send to a publicly archived mailing list, then see
+\&\*(L"\s-1SECURITY VULNERABILITY CONTACT INFORMATION\*(R"\s0 in perlsec
+for details of how to report the issue.
+.SH "Give Thanks"
+.IX Header "Give Thanks"
+If you wish to thank the Perl 5 Porters for the work we had done in Perl 5,
+you can do so by running the \f(CW\*(C`perlthanks\*(C'\fR program:

+This will send an email to the Perl 5 Porters list with your show of thanks.
