CVE-2021-29480 affects Ratpack web applications prior to version 1.9.0, where the client-side session module defaults to using the application startup time as the signing key. This low-severity vulnerability (CVSS 3.1) allows an attacker to tamper with session data if they can determine the startup time and encryption is not enabled, leading to a potential integrity compromise. While the attack complexity is high due to the need to determine startup time, the impact is limited to data integrity. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this CVE.
