CVE-2025-40932

HIGH CVSS 3.1: 8.2 EPSS 0.04%
Updated Feb 27, 2026
Apache
Parameter Value
CVSS 8.2 (HIGH)
Type CWE-340, CWE-338
Vendor Apache
Public PoC No

Apache::SessionX versions through 2.01 for Perl create insecure session id. Apache::SessionX generates session ids insecurely. The default session id generator in Apache::SessionX::Generate::MD5 returns a MD5 hash seeded with the built-in rand() function, the epoch time, and the PID.

The PID will come from a small set of numbers, and the epoch time may be guessed, if it is not leaked from the HTTP Date header. The built-in rand function is unsuitable for cryptographic usage. Predicable session ids could allow an attacker to gain access to systems.
