Security Advisories (2)
CVE-2024-58134 (2025-05-03)

Mojolicious versions from 0.999922 for Perl uses a hard coded string, or the application's class name, as a HMAC session secret by default. These predictable default secrets can be exploited to forge session cookies. An attacker who knows or guesses the secret could compute valid HMAC signatures for the session cookie, allowing them to tamper with or hijack another user's session.

CVE-2024-58135 (2025-05-03)

Mojolicious versions from 7.28 for Perl may generate weak HMAC session secrets. When creating a default app with the "mojo generate app" tool, a weak secret is written to the application's configuration file using the insecure rand() function, and used for authenticating and protecting the integrity of the application's sessions. This may allow an attacker to brute force the application's session keys.

NAME

Mojo::Server::Morbo - Tonight at 11...DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

SYNOPSIS

use Mojo::Server::Morbo;

my $morbo = Mojo::Server::Morbo->new;
$morbo->run('/home/sri/myapp.pl');

DESCRIPTION

Mojo::Server::Morbo is a full featured, self-restart capable non-blocking I/O HTTP and WebSocket server, built around the very well tested and reliable Mojo::Server::Daemon, with IPv6, TLS, SNI, UNIX domain socket, Comet (long polling), keep-alive and multiple event loop support. Note that the server uses signals for process management, so you should avoid modifying signal handlers in your applications.

To start applications with it you can use the morbo script.

$ morbo ./myapp.pl
Web application available at http://127.0.0.1:3000

For better scalability (epoll, kqueue) and to provide non-blocking name resolution, SOCKS5 as well as TLS support, the optional modules EV (4.32+), Net::DNS::Native (0.15+), IO::Socket::Socks (0.64+) and IO::Socket::SSL (2.009+) will be used automatically if possible. Individual features can also be disabled with the MOJO_NO_NNR, MOJO_NO_SOCKS and MOJO_NO_TLS environment variables.

See "DEPLOYMENT" in Mojolicious::Guides::Cookbook for more.
