Session fixation vulnerability in CuppaCMS thru commit 4c9b742b23b924cf4c1f943f48b278e06a17e297 on November 12, 2019 allows attackers to gain access to arbitrary user sessions.
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.

Such a scenario is commonly observed when:
In the generic exploit of session fixation vulnerabilities, an attacker creates a new session on a web application and records the associated session identifier. The attacker then causes the victim to associate, and possibly authenticate, against the server using that session identifier, giving the attacker access to the user’s account through the active session.
