Catalyst::Plugin::Statsd versions through 0.10.0 for Perl may leak session ids.

If the communication channel to the statsd daemon is not secured (for example, by sending UDP packets to a host on another network), then users' session ids may be leaked. This may allow an attacker to use session ids as authentication tokens.

Fixes

Solution

Upgrade to version 0.10.0 of later, which will no longer log session ids to statsd. If Plack::Middleware::Statsd is upgraded to 0.9.0 or later and is configured to log some information securely, then session ids will be logged as HMAC signatures instead.


Workaround

Use a statsd daemon on the same host or through a secure communications channel.
