openSUSE 16 Security Update : perl-Dancer2-Plugin-Auth-Extensible (openSUSE-SU-2026:22190-1)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 374773

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote openSUSE 16 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the openSUSE- SU-2026:22190-1 advisory.

 Changes in perl-Dancer2-Plugin-Auth-Extensible:

 - updated to 0.714.0 (0.714)
 * Fix failing tests when sendmail binary not present on system.

 - updated to 0.713.0 (0.713)
 * Fix the ability to generate links in emails that have dynamic hosts. The security fix in the previous release cached the first base URI, which meant that if an application intentionally supports different hosts for its generated emails (based on the reqest host) then these were always fixed at the first request.
 * Add uri_base parameter (addresses CVE-2026-15689). If this is not set and if the application does not otherwise enforce a particular hostname, then an attacker can generate password reset emails and welcome emails for genuine users that contain links to a malicious host.
 bsc#1275272

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected perl-Dancer2-Plugin-Auth-Extensible package.
