Account persistence via missing password-change logout
Published Sep 22, 2025 · Updated Sep 22, 2025
Insufficient session expiration in CubeCart before 6.5.11 allows remote authenticated users to retain account access after password changes. In the customer profile path, a successful changePassword() call updated the password without calling user->logout(), leaving the PHP session authorized. Exploitation requires an already authenticated session; that session can continue reading and modifying the account until its natural expiration.
