Mojolicious Plugin Session Store Vulnerability in Perl Application
CVE-2026-9692
5.3MEDIUM
What is CVE-2026-9692?
The Mojolicious::Sessions::Storable component in version 0.05 generates session IDs using predictable methods, including a SHA-1 hash that combines low-entropy inputs such as the built-in rand function, epoch time, heap address, and process ID. This results in session identifiers that are susceptible to being guessed, compromising the security of user sessions in Perl applications. It is crucial for developers to update to patched versions and ensure secure session ID generation practices are followed to safeguard against unauthorized access.
Affected Version(s)
Mojolicious::Sessions::Storable 0 <= 0.05
