There is a potential RCE with regards to Storable. We have added session ID validation to the session engine so that session backends based on Storable can reject malformed session IDs that may lead to exploitation of the RCE.

NAME

Dancer2::Template::Tiny - Template::Tiny engine for Dancer2

VERSION

version 0.08

SYNOPSIS

This template engine allows you to use Template::Tiny in Dancer2.

Template::Tiny is an implementation of a subset of Template::Toolkit (the major parts) which takes much less memory and is faster. If you're only using the main functions of Template::Toolkit, you could use Template::Tiny. You can also seemlessly move back to Template::Toolkit whenever you want.

However, Dancer2 uses a modified version of Template::Tiny, which is Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny. It adds 2 features :

  • opening and closing tag are now configurable

  • CodeRefs are evaluated and their results is inserted in the result.

You can read more on Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny.

To use this engine, all you need to configure in your Dancer2's config.yaml:

template: "tiny"

Of course, you can also set this while working using set:

# code code code
set template => 'tiny';

Since Dancer2 has internal support for a wrapper-like option with the layout configuration option, you can have a Template::Toolkit-like WRAPPER even though Template::Tiny doesn't really support it.

METHODS

render($template, \%tokens)

Renders the template. The first arg is a filename for the template file or a reference to a string that contains the template. The second arg is a hashref for the tokens that you wish to pass to Template::Toolkit for rendering.
