CVE-2026-45180 RRWO CVE debrief

Who should care

Users of Catalyst::Plugin::Statsd versions up to 0.10.0 for Perl should be aware of this vulnerability and take steps to secure their systems. This includes verifying and updating Catalyst::Plugin::Statsd to a secure version, securing the communication channel to the statsd daemon, and monitoring for potential session id leaks. Affected operators, platforms, vulnerability-management, and security teams should review the official advisory or CVE record to validate the affected scope, severity, and vendor guidance.

Technical summary

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. This may allow an attacker to use session ids as authentication tokens. Users of Catalyst::Plugin::Statsd versions up to 0.10.0 for Perl should verify the affected product deployments in their managed environments and review the official advisory or CVE record to validate the affected scope, severity, and vendor guidance.
