2014-06-10 22:20:40 Son Nguyen description Reported by Turzo Ahmed <ondhokarer_rajputra@yahoo.co.uk> In Mahara, changing the password doesn't destroys the other sessions which are logged in with old passwords. As other sessions is not destroyed, attacker may be still logged in your account even after changing password, as his session is still active.. he'll have complete access on your account till that session expires! So, your account remains insecure even after the changing of password. We have 2 options to solve 1. Delete all active sessions right after an user changes his/her password 2. Facebook solved this issue by adding a process that asks users whether user want to close all open sessions or not right after changing password.
