Bug description:
Hi Security Team,
I have discovered the session management issue on the domain
https://mahara.org/
Description of the issue-
The application does not invalidate the previous session once the
password is changed by the legitimate user.
How to reproduce?-
1. Login in the application using https://mahara.org/ and login into the application.
2. Lets assume application user's account is compromised so he wants to change his password, he will navigate to forgot password page and will change his password.
3. Application user is able to change his password but it was observed that still the previous session was not invalidated and i was actually able to browse the application from both the sessions.
Impact- If the application user's account is compromised, he will simply change his password but if the previous session is not invalidated there is no use of changing the password.
Please let me know if you need video PoC for this.
Remediation- Invalidate the previous session once the password has
been changed and enforce the application user to relogin in the
application.
Thanks and Regards,
Abhishek Dashora
