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 1.009 - 2009-01-04

  • Remove use of _config accessor, which I'd stupidly cargo-culted. As we don't ever run in auth back-compat mode, we can store everything in instance data without worrying about conflicts. Note however - have to keep the accessor itself so that our parent class (which is still stupid and uses it) continues to work.
