Took a quick look using the latest Crypt::CBC and Crypt::IDEA off CPAN. they return a 48 hex char string for encrypting '300'. which is the string 'RandomIV<8byteIV><8byteCipherText>'

At a guess you upgraded Crypt::CBC from something pre 1.22 to something greater than 1.22 which is when the readme says they added random IV's. And so it's probably the IV that's changing the length. According to the docs it should still work however I took a quick gander at the source and it appears to use a random IV unless one is specified in the encrypted string. If this is in fact the problem you are having you'll have to figure out what IV you were using before and use that specifically.
