For example, if a user's password is changed by an administrator due to an otherwise unrelated credential leak, that user account's current session is still valid after the password change, potentially allowing the attacker who originally compromised the credential to remain logged in and able to cause further damage.","published":"2019-08-21T20:15:13.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T02:38:01.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"cve@rapid7.com","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":8.7,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N"},"cwe":["CWE-613"],"affected":["rapid7/nexpose"],"epss":{"score":0.00835,"percentile":0.57451,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.83%).
