IBM Jazz Foundation could allow an authenticated user to take over a previously logged in user due to session expiration not being enforced.

Weakness

Authenticating a user, or otherwise establishing a new user session, without invalidating any existing session identifier gives an attacker the opportunity to steal authenticated sessions.
