Technical description

Flarum before 1.8.16 contains an improper session invalidation vulnerability that allows attackers who hold a valid session token to retain full account access after a victim changes their password, because the access_tokens table is never cleared on password change events. The TokensClearer::clearPasswordTokens() function only removes rows from the password_tokens table while leaving all active session cookies and API bearer tokens intact, including long-lived RememberAccessToken entries, and administrator-forced password resets via the user update endpoint are equally ineffective at revoking attacker-held sessions.

Insufficient Session Expiration vulnerability in Apache Answer. This issue affects Apache Answer: through 2.0.1. Administrative API keys remained usable after the owning administrator was demoted or the account was marked inactive, suspended, or deleted, allowing continued access until the keys were explicitly removed. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.0.2, which fixes the issue.6h

0Shiori's CheckToken function (internal/domains/auth.go) validates only the JWT's HMAC signature and returns the embedded claims.Account object unmodified, never re-fetching the account from the database. No session store or token-revocation mechanism exists in the codebase. Deleting an account or demoting it from owner to a regular role has no effect on tokens already issued to that account — a deleted or demoted owner's token continues authenticating with its original owner-level privileges until natural expiry, which can be up to 30 days with 'remember me' enabled.9h
