Umbraco is a free and open source .NET content management system. In versions on the 13.x branch prior to 13.5.2 and versions on the 10.x branch prior to 10.8.7, during an explicit sign-out, the server session is not fully terminated. Versions 13.5.2 and 10.8.7 contain a patch for the issue.
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.
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Umbraco_cms | Umbraco | 10.0 (including) | 10.8.7 (excluding) |
| Umbraco_cms | Umbraco | 13.0 (including) | 13.5.2 (excluding) |
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.
