CVE-2025-3930: Lack of JWT Expiration after Log Out in Strapi

• Severity: medium (CVSS 6.3 v4.0)
• Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
• EPSS: 0.7% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
• Public exploit or detection template: none known
• Published: 2025-10-16 · updated 2026-10-19
• Weakness: CWE-613

Description

Strapi uses JSON Web Tokens (JWT) for authentication. After logout or account deactivation, the JWT is not invalidated, which allows an attacker who has stolen or intercepted the token to freely reuse it until its expiration date (which is set to 30 days by default, but can be changed). The existence of /admin/renew-token endpoint allows anyone to renew near-expiration tokens indefinitely, further increasing the impact of this attack. This issue has been fixed in version 5.24.1.

Affected products

• strapi: before 5.24.1 — fixed in 5.24.1

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: strapi 5.24.1. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
