Plack::Middleware::Session::Cookie versions through 0.21 for Perl allows remote code execution.
Plack::Middleware::Session::Cookie versions through 0.21 has a security vulnerability where it allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the server during deserialization of the cookie data, when there is no secret used to sign the cookie.
Weakness
The product relies on the existence or values of cookies when performing security-critical operations, but it does not properly ensure that the setting is valid for the associated user.
