Apache InLong: Insufficient Session Expiration in InLong

🚨 An old session can still be active even after a password change! Just like an expired ticket that still gets you onto the train, this vulnerability in Apache InLong lets attackers ride along without a valid fare. 🔥 Think of it like a restaurant where you’ve reserved a table under a specific name. Even after you leave, a sneaky guest can walk in and sit down at your table, using your reservation to enjoy a meal meant for you. This is exactly what happens when an attacker exploits an insufficient session expiration! This means that if a user deletes their account or changes their password, an attacker could still hijack their session and access sensitive information or perform actions as if they were that user. The potential for data breaches or malicious activities is absolutely devastating!
