CVE-2022-31629: $_COOKIE names string replacement (. -> _): cookie integrity vulnerabilities
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Plan (action score 41/100)
- Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 49.5% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 98.9% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: apcu-panel (AlmaLinux:8) 5.1.20-1.module_el8.6.0+2739+efabdb8f, 5.1.18-1.module_el8.6.0+2750+78feabcb, 5.1.23-1.module_el8.10.0+3796+30ed3ef7; libzip (AlmaLinux:8) 1.6.1-1.module_el8.10.0+3935+28808425, 1.7.3-1.module_el8.6.0+2739+efabdb8f, 1.6.1-1.module_el8.6.0+2750+78feabcb; libzip-devel (AlmaLinux:8) 1.6.1-1.module_el8.6.0+2750+78feabcb, 1.7.3-1.module_el8.6.0+3061+6878dd1b, 1.7.3-1.module_el8.10.0+3796+30ed3ef7.
Add it to your regular patch cycle. Upgrade to apcu-panel (AlmaLinux:8) 5.1.20-1.module_el8.6.0+2739+efabdb8f, 5.1.18-1.module_el8.6.0+2750+78feabcb, 5.1.23-1.module_el8.10.0+3796+30ed3ef7; libzip (AlmaLinux:8) 1.6.1-1.module_el8.10.0+3935+28808425, 1.7.3-1.module_el8.6.0+2739+efabdb8f, 1.6.1-1.module_el8.6.0+2750+78feabcb; libzip-devel (AlmaLinux:8) 1.6.1-1.module_el8.6.0+2750+78feabcb, 1.7.3-1.module_el8.6.0+3061+6878dd1b, 1.7.3-1.module_el8.10.0+3796+30ed3ef7 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In PHP versions before 7.4.31, 8.0.24 and 8.1.11, the vulnerability enables network and same-site attackers to set a standard insecure cookie in the victim's browser which is treated as a `__Host-` or `__Secure-` cookie by PHP applications.
