AI-suggested
This vulnerability is fixed in SuperTokens Core versions 11.0.9, 11.1.4, 11.2.4, 11.3.8, 11.4.8, 12.0.11, and 12.1.2. Users should upgrade to one of these fixed versions to ensure proper session expiration enforcement. Until upgrading, be aware that relying solely on periodic cleanup for session expiration may allow stale sessions to remain valid. No other specific mitigations are indicated by the vendor advisory.
Description
SuperTokens Core versions from 11.0.0 up to but excluding 11.0.9, 11.1.4, 11.2.4, 11.3.8, 11.4.8, 12.0.11, and 12.1.2 contain an insufficient session expiration vulnerability. The system treats any stored dashboard administrator session as valid without verifying the session expiry time, relying solely on periodic cleanup tasks that may be delayed or prevented. This allows an attacker who obtains a session after its intended 30-day lifetime to continue using it with full dashboard access until the session record is deleted. The flaw does not enable guessing or acquiring session identifiers. Fixed versions address this issue by properly validating session expiry.
