What is CVE-2025-47278?

A vulnerability in Flask 3.1.0 concerns the mishandling of key configuration for signing sessions. When utilizing key rotation via the SECRET_KEY_FALLBACKS setting, Flask improperly assembles the list of signing keys, leading to the last key in the list being used erroneously. This misconfiguration can result in sessions being signed with outdated keys, complicating transitions to newer keys. Although sessions remain signed and there’s no risk of data integrity loss, it is imperative for users to upgrade to Flask version 3.1.1, which addresses this issue.
