    Activerecord-session_store Vulnerable to Timing Attack

    CVE-2019-25025 · GHSA-cvw2-xj8r-mjf7

    Affected
    • RubyGems activerecord-session_store <= 1.1.3
    Fixed in
    2.0.0· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    The activerecord-sessionstore (aka Active Record Session Store) component through 1.1.3 for Ruby on Rails does not use a constant-time approach when delivering information about whether a guessed session ID is valid. Consequently, remote attackers can leverage timing discrepancies to achieve a correct guess in a relatively short amount of time. This is a related issue to CVE-2019-16782. Recommendation This has been fixed in version 2.0.0. All users are advised to update to this version or later.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 2.0.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
