Spree uses a hardcoded hash value
Quick fix
GHSA-g466-57gh-cqfw — spree: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
bundle update spreeDetails
The session cookie store implementation in Spree 0.2.0 uses a hardcoded `config.action_controller_session` hash value (aka secret key), which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveraging an application that contains this value within the `config/environment.rb` file.
