CVE-2026-38968: CVE-2026-38968 affecting package ntopng for versions less than 5.2.1-7

Severity: Critical

CVSS Score: 9.8

ntopng through 6.6 is vulnerable to Predictable Session Identifier which can lead to Session Hijacking. HTTP session identifiers in src/HTTPserver.cpp use weak time-seeded pseudo-randomness during session creation. As a result, fresh authenticated logins can receive deterministic or colliding session cookies under attacker-controlled timing.
