CVE-2026-111946
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.description
Plack-Middleware-ETag versions 0.04 through before 0.06 can include file inode numbers in ETag headers. A client can use this metadata to fingerprint the backend or correlate files across URLs when the application serves filehandle responses and file_etag is not configured.
mitigation
Upgrade Plack-Middleware-ETag to version 0.06 or later. Until upgraded, configure file_etag explicitly for filehandle responses to avoid the default ETag construction.
fixed in 0.06
outcome
Contextual check: a technique exists and was validated, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
