Published: 2018-07-18 · updated 2026-06-17
Weakness: CWE-384

Description

An issue was discovered in WonderCMS before 2.5.2. An attacker can create a new session on a web application and record the associated session identifier. The attacker then causes the victim to authenticate against the server using the same session identifier. The attacker can access the user's account through the active session. The Session Fixation attack fixes a session on the victim's browser, so the attack starts before the user logs in.

Affected products

WonderCMS: before 2.5.2 — fixed in 2.5.2

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: WonderCMS 2.5.2. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
