CVE-2025-40920 (2025-08-11)

Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::HTTP versions 1.018 and earlier for Perl generate nonces using the Perl Data::UUID library. * Data::UUID does not use a strong cryptographic source for generating UUIDs. * Data::UUID returns v3 UUIDs, which are generated from known information and are unsuitable for security, as per RFC 9562. * The nonces should be generated from a strong cryptographic source, as per RFC 7616.

Changes for version 1.007 - 2008-11-19

  • Add test for query strings in digest auth as digest header is built using the full URI (t0m)
  • Fix for this (Peter Corlett)
  • Fix warning when used with self_check => 1 (t0m)
  • Added respository info to META.yml (t0m)
