Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2024-58134

high Nessus Plugin ID 258717

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

- Mojolicious versions from 0.999922 through 9.40 for Perl uses a hard coded string, or the application's class name, as a HMAC session secret by default. These predictable default secrets can be exploited to forge session cookies. An attacker who knows or guesses the secret could compute valid HMAC signatures for the session cookie, allowing them to tamper with or hijack another user's session. (CVE-2024-58134)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
