high Web App Scanning Plugin ID 113956

Synopsis

CKAN < 2.8.12 Shared Session Secret

Description

The version of CKAN installed can be impacted by a shared session secret if the application is based on one of the CKAN Docker images and if the users didn't set a custom value via an environment variable.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to CKAN version 2.8.12 or later.
