CVE-2026-13577

8.2 · HIGH
Published Jul 20, 2026 CWE-338

Overview

CVE-2026-13577 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 20, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.2 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.2, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical Description

Dancer2 versions through 2.1.0 for Perl generate insecure session ids when required CSPRNG modules are unavailable.

Dancer2::Core::Role::SessionFactory::generate_id silently falls back to a built-in rand-derived session id unless both Math::Random::ISAAC::XS and Crypt::URandom are available.

The fallback session id is generated from a SHA-1 hash of a call to the built-in rand function, the absolute path of the Dancer2::Core::Role::SessionFactory module, an internal counter, the process id, the module instance memory address, and a shuffled string of characters (using the List::Util::shuffle function, which also uses the built-in rand function).

These are all low-entropy and easily guessed sources.

The built-in rand() function is seeded with 32-bits and considered unsuitable for security applications.

Predictable session ids could allow an attacker to gain access to systems.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
