BSON::XS versions 0.8.4 and earlier for Perl includes a bundled libbson 1.1.7, which has several vulnerabilities.

Those include CVE-2017-14227, CVE-2018-16790, CVE-2023-0437, CVE-2024-6381, CVE-2024-6383, and CVE-2025-0755.

BSON-XS was the official Perl XS implementation of MongoDB's BSON serialization, but this distribution has reached its end of life as of August 13, 2020 and is no longer supported.

Remedy

Manually remove the bundled version of libbson, update the "bson" folder with an up-to-date version of libbson's source code and try building against it.

Remedy

Consider using a security patched version of BSON::XS from a downstream packager or OS distribution.
