CVSS v3.1 |
| Solstice::Session versions through 1440 for Perl generates session ids insecurely.
The _generateSessionID method returns an MD5 digest seeded by the epoch time, a random hash reference, a call to the built-in rand() function and the process id.
The same method is used in the _generateID method in Solstice::Subsession, which is part of the same distribution.
The epoch time may be guessed, if it is not leaked in the HTTP Date header. Stringified hash refences will contain predictable content. The built-in rand() function is seeded by 16-bits and is unsuitable for security purposes. The process id comes from a small set of numbers.
Predictable session ids could allow an attacker to gain access to systems. |
| The get_random_int function in drivers/char/random.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.30 produces insufficiently random numbers, which allows attackers to predict the return value, and possibly defeat protection mechanisms based on randomization, via vectors that leverage the function's tendency to "return the same value over and over again for long stretches of time." |
| The QNAP TS-239 Pro and TS-639 Pro with firmware 2.1.7 0613, 3.1.0 0627, and 3.1.1 0815 use the rand library function to generate a certain recovery key, which makes it easier for local users to determine this key via a brute-force attack. |
| OpenSSL 0.9.8c-1 up to versions before 0.9.8g-9 on Debian-based operating systems uses a random number generator that generates predictable numbers, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute force guessing attacks against cryptographic keys. |
| cgi-bin/makecgi-pro in Iomega StorCenter Pro generates predictable session IDs, which allows remote attackers to hijack active sessions and gain privileges via brute force guessing attacks on the session_id parameter. |
| Plack::Middleware::Session::Simple versions before 0.05 for Perl generates session ids insecurely.
The default session id generator returns a SHA-1 hash seeded with the built-in rand function, the epoch time, and the PID. The PID will come from a small set of numbers, and the epoch time may be guessed, if it is not leaked from the HTTP Date header. The built-in rand function is unsuitable for cryptographic usage.
Predictable session ids could allow an attacker to gain access to systems.
Plack::Middleware::Session::Simple is intended to be compatible with Plack::Middleware::Session, which had a similar security issue CVE-2025-40923. |
| Apache::Session::Generate::MD5 versions through 1.94 for Perl create insecure session id.
Apache::Session::Generate::MD5 generates session ids insecurely. The default session id generator returns a MD5 hash seeded with the built-in rand() function, the epoch time, and the PID. The PID will come from a small set of numbers, and the epoch time may be guessed, if it is not leaked from the HTTP Date header. The built-in rand function is unsuitable for cryptographic usage. Predicable session ids could allow an attacker to gain access to systems.
Note that the libapache-session-perl package in some Debian-based Linux distributions may be patched to use Crypt::URandom. |
| Concierge::Sessions versions from 0.8.1 before 0.8.5 for Perl generate insecure session ids. The generate_session_id function in Concierge::Sessions::Base defaults to using the uuidgen command to generate a UUID, with a fallback to using Perl's built-in rand function. Neither of these methods are secure, and attackers are able to guess session_ids that can grant them access to systems. Specifically,
* There is no warning when uuidgen fails. The software can be quietly using the fallback rand() function with no warnings if the command fails for any reason.
* The uuidgen command will generate a time-based UUID if the system does not have a high-quality random number source, because the call does not explicitly specify the --random option. Note that the system time is shared in HTTP responses.
* UUIDs are identifiers whose mere possession grants access, as per RFC 9562.
* The output of the built-in rand() function is predictable and unsuitable for security applications. |
| HTTP::Session2 versions before 1.12 for Perl for Perl may generate weak session ids using the rand() function.
The HTTP::Session2 session id generator returns a SHA-1 hash seeded with the built-in rand function, the epoch time, and the PID. The PID will come from a small set of numbers, and the epoch time may be guessed, if it is not leaked from the HTTP Date header. The built-in rand() function is unsuitable for cryptographic usage.
HTTP::Session2 after version 1.02 will attempt to use the /dev/urandom device to generate a session id, but if the device is unavailable (for example, under Windows), then it will revert to the insecure method described above. |
| Authen::SASL::Perl::DIGEST_MD5 versions 2.04 through 2.1800 for Perl generates the cnonce insecurely.
The cnonce (client nonce) is generated from an MD5 hash of the PID, the epoch time and the built-in rand function. The PID will come from a small set of numbers, and the epoch time may be guessed, if it is not leaked from the HTTP Date header. The built-in rand function is unsuitable for cryptographic usage.
According to RFC 2831, The cnonce-value is an opaque quoted string value provided by the client and used by both client and server to avoid chosen plaintext attacks, and to provide mutual authentication. The security of the implementation
depends on a good choice. It is RECOMMENDED that it contain at least 64 bits of entropy. |
| A vulnerability was identified in the password generation algorithm when accessing the debug-interface. An unauthenticated local attacker with knowledge of the password generation timeframe might be able to brute force the password in a timely manner and thus gain root access to the device if the debug interface is still enabled. |
| Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) in the SonicOS SSLVPN authentication token generator that, in certain cases, can be predicted by an attacker potentially resulting in authentication bypass. |
| tgt (aka Linux target framework) before 1.0.93 attempts to achieve entropy by calling rand without srand. The PRNG seed is always 1, and thus the sequence of challenges is always identical. |
| Mojolicious::Plugin::CSRF 1.03 for Perl uses a weak random number source for generating CSRF tokens.
That version of the module generates tokens as an MD5 of the process id, the current time, and a single call to the built-in rand() function. |
| Use of a weak pseudo-random number generator, which may allow an attacker to read or inject encrypted PowerG packets. |
| Mateso PasswordSafe through 8.13.9.26689 has Weak Cryptography. |
| Guzzle OAuth Subscriber signs Guzzle requests using OAuth 1.0. Prior to 0.8.1, Nonce generation does not use sufficient entropy nor a cryptographically secure pseudorandom source. This can leave servers vulnerable to replay attacks when TLS is not used. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.1. |
| An issue ingalxe.com Galxe platform 1.0 allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information via the Web3 authentication process of Galxe, the signed message lacks a nonce (random number) |
| Apache::AuthAny::Cookie v0.201 or earlier for Perl generates session ids insecurely.
Session ids are generated using an MD5 hash of the epoch time and a call to the built-in rand function. The epoch time may be guessed, if it is not leaked from the HTTP Date header. The built-in rand function is unsuitable for cryptographic usage.
Predicable session ids could allow an attacker to gain access to systems. |
| Mojolicious::Plugin::CaptchaPNG version 1.05 for Perl uses a weak random number source for generating the captcha.
That version uses the built-in rand() function for generating the captcha text as well as image noise, which is insecure. |
