Mojolicious 9.48 addresses a critical CSRF token issue by masking tokens with fresh random values. Update recommended.
The Fedora update for perl-Mojolicious 9.48 addresses a security issue with CSRF tokens vulnerable to BREACH attacks by masking tokens with a fresh random value for each request.

Summary

Back in the early days of the web there was this wonderful Perl library

called CGI, many people only learned Perl because of it. It was simple

enough to get started without knowing much about the language and powerful

enough to keep you going, learning by doing was much fun. While most of the

techniques used are outdated now, the idea behind it is not. Mojolicious is

a new attempt at implementing this idea using state of the art technology.

Update Information:

Mojolicious 9.48 fixes a security issue where CSRF tokens were vulnerable to BREACH attacks. Tokens are now masked with a fresh random value on every request, instead of being reused for the whole lifetime of a session.

Change Log

* Tue Jul 14 2026 Emmanuel Seyman - 9.48-1 - Update to 9.48
