The Net::Netmask module before 2.0000 for Perl does not properly consider extraneous zero characters at the beginning of an IP address string, which (in some situations) allows attackers to bypass access control that is based on IP addresses.

Weakness

The product does not correctly convert an object, resource, or structure from one type to a different type.
