CVE-2015-10149 Dancer versions before 1.3400 for Perl pass unvalidated session ids from the session cookie to the session engine
No CVSS score yet.
On this page
Dancer versions before 1.3400 for Perl pass unvalidated session ids from the session cookie to the session engine.
read_session_id returns the cookie value as the session id without checking its characters, and Dancer hands it to the session engine to load the session.
A remote attacker may cause path traversal or injection in a session engine that uses the id in a file path, cache command or query without checking it.

Explain CVE-2015-10149 for an engineer deciding whether to act. Use https://cve.bz/api/public/cves/CVE-2015-10149?via=ask-ai-copy and https://cve.bz/cve/CVE-2015-10149?via=ask-ai-copy as the source of truth: what is affected and which versions fix it, whether it is in CISA KEV, public exploits, and its EPSS (an internet-wide 30-day estimate of exploitation activity, not a forecast for my systems). If they give no fixed versions, use the CVE record https://cveawg.mitre.org/api/cve/CVE-2015-10149 or the vendor advisory, not third-party mirrors. Tell me how to check whether I am affected and how to verify a fix. Cite the sources and say where they are uncertain.Opens a third-party assistant; its answer is its own, not cve.bz's. The prompt holds only this CVE's id and public links.
