## Summary When debug logging is enabled, `Session::setCookie()` logs full cookie values and `Session::start()` logs the current session ID. In a real Admidio deployment this includes both the active session cookie and the persistent auto-login cookie. Anyone with access to the log sink can recover live bearer-style credentials from the logs. ## Vulnerable Code Links - https://github.com/Admidio/admidio/blob/v5.0.9/src/Session/Entity/Session.php#L533-L540 - https://github.com/Admidio/admidio/blob/v5.0.9/src/Session/Entity/Session.php#L615-L617 ## Vulnerable Code ```php // src/Session/Entity/Session.php $gLogger->info('Set Cookie!', array( 'name' => $name, 'value' => $value, 'expire' => $expire, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax' )); ... session_start(); $gLogger->info('Session Started!', array( 'name' => $sessionName, 'limit' => $limit, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax', 'sessionId' => session_id() )); ``` ## What Does The Code Mean Every time Admidio sets a cookie, it writes the raw cookie value to the application log. When a session starts, it writes the active session identifier too. ## Why The Code Is Vulnerable Session IDs and persistent auto-login values are credentials. Logging them turns the log file into a credential store and expands the trust boundary to anyone who can read logs, backups, or external log aggregation outputs. ## Verification Environment - Application: Admidio `v5.0.9` - Runtime: Dockerized Admidio + MariaDB on `http://localhost:18080` - Validation mode: real deployed application, not isolated unit tests ## Steps To Reproduce 1. Enable Admidio debug logging. 2. Log in with `auto_login=1` enabled. 3. Inspect the generated application log. 4. Observe that the log contains both the `ADMIDIO_*_AUTO_LOGIN_ID` value and the `ADMIDIO_*_SESSION_ID` value in cleartext. ## PoC Script ```python from helpers import login, new_session, save_json def main(): session = new_session() result = login(session, "admin", "AdminPass123!", auto_login=True) save_json("session_logging_login.json", result) if __name__ == "__main__": main() ``` ## PoC Output ```text { "cookies": { "ADMIDIO_admidio_adm_AUTO_LOGIN_ID": "2%3AnO2BhCdRgFUMKT46e2EzS79Inf4oWiLWzLnX9Ko5", "ADMIDIO_admidio_adm_SESSION_ID": "iga3ujr67cti6s7btnuhecte67" }, "csrf": "y41CaDdEO7RKug5FIRWO2Dx8w7KVQZ", "json": { "status": "success", "url": "http://localhost:18080/modules/overview.php" }, "status_code": 200 } 5191:[2026-04-30 20:57:59.555213] Admidio.INFO: Session Started!

Replace them with fixed labels or redact most of the value before logging. ```php $gLogger->info('Set Cookie!', [ 'name' => $name, 'value' => '[redacted]', 'expire' => $expire, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax', ]); $gLogger->info('Session Started!', [ 'name' => $sessionName, 'limit' => $limit, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax', 'sessionId' => '[redacted]', ]); ```

Replace them with fixed labels or redact most of the value before logging. ```php $gLogger->info('Set Cookie!', [ 'name' => $name, 'value' => '[redacted]', 'expire' => $expire, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax', ]); $gLogger->info('Session Started!', [ 'name' => $sessionName, 'limit' => $limit, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax', 'sessionId' => '[redacted]', ]); ```
Update admidio/admidio to 5.0.10 if you use the affected versions. Test the change in a non-production environment first.
Local check
hol-guard supply-chain scanAdmidio writes session IDs and auto-login cookie values to application logs affects admidio/admidio (composer). Severity is medium. ## Summary When debug logging is enabled, `Session::setCookie()` logs full cookie values and `Session::start()` logs the current session ID. In a real Admidio deployment this includes both the active session cookie and the persistent auto-login cookie. Anyone with access to the log sink can recover live bearer-style credentials from the logs. ## Vulnerable Code Links - https://github.com/Admidio/admidio/blob/v5.0.9/src/Session/Entity/Session.php#L533-L540 - https://github.com/Admidio/admidio/blob/v5.0.9/src/Session/Entity/Session.php#L615-L617 ## Vulnerable Code ```php // src/Session/Entity/Session.php $gLogger->info('Set Cookie!', array( 'name' => $name, 'value' => $value, 'expire' => $expire, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax' )); ... session_start(); $gLogger->info('Session Started!', array( 'name' => $sessionName, 'limit' => $limit, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax', 'sessionId' => session_id() )); ``` ## What Does The Code Mean Every time Admidio sets a cookie, it writes the raw cookie value to the application log. When a session starts, it writes the active session identifier too. ## Why The Code Is Vulnerable Session IDs and persistent auto-login values are credentials. Logging them turns the log file into a credential store and expands the trust boundary to anyone who can read logs, backups, or external log aggregation outputs. ## Verification Environment - Application: Admidio `v5.0.9` - Runtime: Dockerized Admidio + MariaDB on `http://localhost:18080` - Validation mode: real deployed application, not isolated unit tests ## Steps To Reproduce 1. Enable Admidio debug logging. 2. Log in with `auto_login=1` enabled. 3. Inspect the generated application log. 4. Observe that the log contains both the `ADMIDIO_*_AUTO_LOGIN_ID` value and the `ADMIDIO_*_SESSION_ID` value in cleartext. ## PoC Script ```python from helpers import login, new_session, save_json def main(): session = new_session() result = login(session, "admin", "AdminPass123!", auto_login=True) save_json("session_logging_login.json", result) if __name__ == "__main__": main() ``` ## PoC Output ```text { "cookies": { "ADMIDIO_admidio_adm_AUTO_LOGIN_ID": "2%3AnO2BhCdRgFUMKT46e2EzS79Inf4oWiLWzLnX9Ko5", "ADMIDIO_admidio_adm_SESSION_ID": "iga3ujr67cti6s7btnuhecte67" }, "csrf": "y41CaDdEO7RKug5FIRWO2Dx8w7KVQZ", "json": { "status": "success", "url": "http://localhost:18080/modules/overview.php" }, "status_code": 200 } 5191:[2026-04-30 20:57:59.555213] Admidio.INFO: Session Started!

hol-guard supply-chain scanAdmidio writes session IDs and auto-login cookie values to application logs affects admidio/admidio (composer). Severity is medium. ## Summary When debug logging is enabled, `Session::setCookie()` logs full cookie values and `Session::start()` logs the current session ID. In a real Admidio deployment this includes both the active session cookie and the persistent auto-login cookie. Anyone with access to the log sink can recover live bearer-style credentials from the logs. ## Vulnerable Code Links - https://github.com/Admidio/admidio/blob/v5.0.9/src/Session/Entity/Session.php#L533-L540 - https://github.com/Admidio/admidio/blob/v5.0.9/src/Session/Entity/Session.php#L615-L617 ## Vulnerable Code ```php // src/Session/Entity/Session.php $gLogger->info('Set Cookie!', array( 'name' => $name, 'value' => $value, 'expire' => $expire, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax' )); ... session_start(); $gLogger->info('Session Started!', array( 'name' => $sessionName, 'limit' => $limit, 'path' => $path, 'domain' => $domain, 'secure' => $secure, 'httpOnly' => $httpOnly, 'sameSite' => 'lax', 'sessionId' => session_id() )); ``` ## What Does The Code Mean Every time Admidio sets a cookie, it writes the raw cookie value to the application log. When a session starts, it writes the active session identifier too. ## Why The Code Is Vulnerable Session IDs and persistent auto-login values are credentials. Logging them turns the log file into a credential store and expands the trust boundary to anyone who can read logs, backups, or external log aggregation outputs. ## Verification Environment - Application: Admidio `v5.0.9` - Runtime: Dockerized Admidio + MariaDB on `http://localhost:18080` - Validation mode: real deployed application, not isolated unit tests ## Steps To Reproduce 1. Enable Admidio debug logging. 2. Log in with `auto_login=1` enabled. 3. Inspect the generated application log. 4. Observe that the log contains both the `ADMIDIO_*_AUTO_LOGIN_ID` value and the `ADMIDIO_*_SESSION_ID` value in cleartext. ## PoC Script ```python from helpers import login, new_session, save_json def main(): session = new_session() result = login(session, "admin", "AdminPass123!", auto_login=True) save_json("session_logging_login.json", result) if __name__ == "__main__": main() ``` ## PoC Output ```text { "cookies": { "ADMIDIO_admidio_adm_AUTO_LOGIN_ID": "2%3AnO2BhCdRgFUMKT46e2EzS79Inf4oWiLWzLnX9Ko5", "ADMIDIO_admidio_adm_SESSION_ID": "iga3ujr67cti6s7btnuhecte67" }, "csrf": "y41CaDdEO7RKug5FIRWO2Dx8w7KVQZ", "json": { "status": "success", "url": "http://localhost:18080/modules/overview.php" }, "status_code": 200 } 5191:[2026-04-30 20:57:59.555213] Admidio.INFO: Session Started!
