{"id":"CVE-2007-6077","details":"The session fixation protection mechanism in cgi_process.rb in Rails 1.2.4, as used in Ruby on Rails, removes the :cookie_only attribute from the DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS constant, which effectively causes cookie_only to be applied only to the first instantiation of CgiRequest, which allows remote attackers to conduct session fixation attacks.  NOTE: this is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-5380.","aliases":["GHSA-p4c6-77gc-694x"],"modified":"2026-04-10T03:39:24.892636Z","published":"2007-11-21T21:46:00Z","references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"http://secunia.com/advisories/27781"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"http://secunia.com/advisories/28136"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"http://www.vupen.com/english/advisories/2007/4009"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"http://www.vupen.com/english/advisories/2007/4238"},{"type":"ARTICLE","url":"http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2007/11/24/ruby-on-rails-1-2-6-security-and-maintenance-release"},{"type":"FIX","url":"http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10048"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://dev.rubyonrails.org/changeset/8177"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307179"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://lists.apple.com/archives/security-announce/2007/Dec/msg00002.html"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/26598"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.us-cert.gov/cas/techalerts/TA07-352A.html"}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
