DBI::ProfileData versions before 1.651 for Perl do not limit the path
index
Description
-----------
DBI::ProfileData versions before 1.651 for Perl do not limit the path
index.

array of data for the parser. An unbounded value allows an attacker to
specify a large index and consume available memory.

Upgrade to version 1.651 or later.
