CVE-2006-0511
Blackboard Academic Suite 6.0 and earlier does not properly clear session information when de-authenticating a user who is idle, which allows subsequent users to log in as the previous user and gain privileges.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.36%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
Blackboard Academic Suite 6.0 and earlier does not properly clear session information when de-authenticating a user who is idle, which allows subsequent users to log in as the previous user and gain privileges. NOTE: the vendor has disputed this issue, saying that "This is a customer specific issue related to their Kerberos authentication single sign-on application and not a vulnerability in the Blackboard product.
