+Subject: [PATCH] Fix possible stack overflow (old issue already noted by Tim)
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-9698
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/perl5-dbi/dbi/commit/bfe5d73c162d2d1f761a639a0aa33aad6a9eb54e]
+
+Backport Changes:
+- Applied the DBI.xs security fix without functional changes.
+- Omitted ChangeLog and lib/DBI/Changes.pm because they contain only
+  DBI 1.648 release-note updates.
+- Omitted dbixs_rev.h because it is generated from upstream Git history
+  and its hunk depends on DBIXS_RELEASE and DBIXS_VERSION metadata added
+  after DBI 1.647. The fix does not change the DBIXS or DBISTATE
+  interface.
+- Omitted the Makefile.PL addition that runs dbixs_rev.pl from the doc
+  target. It only regenerates dbixs_rev.h and is not required to compile
+  or activate the DBI.xs security fix.
+
+(cherry picked from commit bfe5d73c162d2d1f761a639a0aa33aad6a9eb54e)
