CPANSA-Crypt-Primes-2024-001

bin/largeprimes uses a custom shebang, which allows it to load modules from several locations: '..', '../lib', 'lib'. This could lead to load modules from an unpredictable location depending from where the script is run and what user is running it.

Changes for version 0.50

  • Patch by Dave Paris to fix a limit problem in trialdiv().
  • Removed references to /home/vipul from @INC.
