FS#117 - Session Fixation on admin.alwaysdata.com

Session Fixation on admin.alwaysdata.com

Hi Team, I hope you are doing well. While researching in your domain i found Session Fixation vulnerability.

Steps To Reproduce:

Step-1: Open up Firefox & download Cookie Editor Extension on your browser.
Step-2: Go to https://admin.alwaysdata.com/login/?next=/ & login with your credentials.
Step-3: Click on "Cookie Editor" then, click on "Export cookie" by clicking this we get a cookie copied in clipboard.
Step-4: Open another browser or Private tab.
Step-5: Go to https://admin.alwaysdata.com/login/?next=/ but don't login. Just simply click on "Cookie editor" & click on "Import cookie" & paste the code which we previously exported.
Step-6: After pasting just refresh the page and then scroll down and click on register and after scroll down again and click on Already registered?Login and you can see you logged in into the account.

Impact:
A successful session fixation attack gives the attacker access to the victim's account. This could mean access to higher level privileges or the ability to look at sensitive data.

Note: Attacker can use a link or create a login page and send to the user by social media or anyother way for hijacking the session.

Thank You,

Waleed Anwar

Hello,

That's not a session fixation, that's just how the web works. If you copy the cookie from one browser to another, then yes, you are logged in both.

Kind regards,
Cyril
