The default session id generator returns a SHA-256 hash of the built-in rand() function, the epoch time, and the PID, that is hashed again. These are predictable, low-entropy sources. Predicable session ids could allow an attacker to gain access to systems.\n\nNote that version 1.3.19 has a fallback without warning to use insecure session generation method if the call to Crypt::URandom::urandom fails. However, this is unlikely as Crypt::URandom is a hardcoded requirement of the module.\n\nThis issue is similar to CVE-2025-40931 for Apache::Session::Generate::MD5."}], "lastModified": "2026-05-18T18:23:03.207", "configurations": [{"nodes": [{"negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"criteria": "cpe:2.3:a:guimard:apache\\:\\:session\\:\\:generate\\:\\:sha256:*:*:*:*:*:perl:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "22FCEB1A-DF59-4660-A23B-389E42133610", "versionEndExcluding": "1.3.19"}], "operator": "OR"}]}], "sourceIdentifier": "9b29abf9-4ab0-4765-b253-1875cd9b441e"}
