Date : May 2012
Affected versions : all versions prior to mod_auth_openid-0.7
ID : mod_auth_openid-1201

# Details
Session ids are stored insecurely in /tmp/mod_auth_openid.db (default
filename). The db is world readable and the session ids are stored

Default location is /tmp/mod_auth_openid.db unless another location
has been configured in AuthOpenIDDBLocation.
