Hi Monks, Am a perl newbie working around an existing perl codebase which works with MySQL DB. My script execution is aborted with "*** stack smashing detected ***: perl terminated" error. I know it is hard to suggest a fix without the code. I am looking for ways to track to the source of the problem. Tried by commenting lines of code and push method on an array seem to be the source but the error log (below) confuses me. 
*** stack smashing detected ***: perl terminated

Any suggestions welcome
