Summary
CVE-2026-13713 affecting package perl-YAML-Syck 1.34-1
Details

YAML::Syck versions before 1.47 for Perl allow a use-after-free and double-free via an anchor node freed while still on the parser value stack.

In the bundled libsyck, when an anchor name is redefined or removed, syckhdlraddanchor and syckhdlrremoveanchor free the node stored under that name with syckfreenode. That node can still be live on the parser's value stack, so syckhdlradd_node reaches it again and frees it a second time. On a normal build the 48-byte node chunk is freed twice and the interpreter aborts. Anchors need no special flags, so this is reached on the default Load path, and a 7-byte document that redefines an anchor triggers it.

Any caller that runs Load or LoadFile on an untrusted document that redefines an anchor mid-parse crashes the interpreter, a denial of service.
