Security Advisories (1)
CVE-2026-15689 (2026-08-15)

Dancer2::Plugin::Auth::Extensible versions through 0.713 for Perl allow password reset link poisoning via the request Host header in _default_email_password_reset and _default_welcome_send. Both default emails emit a link of the form `$base/login/$code`, whose authority comes from the request Host header, or from X-Forwarded-Host under behind_proxy (obtained from Dancer2's request->base function). A POST to /login carrying submit_reset and a username needs no authentication: it stores a fresh reset code against that account and mails the account holder a link to a host of the sender's choosing. The welcome mail takes the same path when the application calls create_user with email_welcome set. Through 0.711 the handlers read `request->uri_base` and `request->base` directly; Versions 0.712 and later provide an uri_base configuration key that defaults to the untrusted `request->uri_base` when unset. The default configuration with reset_password_handler enabled and the default message text, a recipient who follows the link hands a working reset code to the sender's host, which is enough to take over the account.

NAME

Dancer2::Plugin::Auth::Extensible::Test - test suite for Auth::Extensible plugin

DESCRIPTION

Test suite for Dancer2::Plugin::Auth::Extensible which can also be used by external providers. If you have written your own provider then you really want to use this since it should make sure your provider conforms as Dancer2::Plugin::Auth::Extensible expects it to. It will also save you writing piles of tests yourself.

FUNCTIONS

runtests $psgi_app

This is the way to test your provider.

testme

This method no longer runs any tests but exists purely to force providers trying to use the old tests to fail.
