CVE-2026-43827 Details
Description
Default configurations of Apache Shiro have a session fixation vulnerability. This issue affects Apache Shiro from 1.0 to 2.1.0, and 3.0.0-alpha-1. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.1.1, or 3.0.0-alpha-2 or later, which fixes the issue.

A session fixation vulnerability has been identified in Apache Shiro, affecting versions 1.0 through 2.1.0 and 3.0.0-alpha-1. In the default configuration, when a session already exists, it is not invalidated upon successful login, nor is a new session generated with a new ID. This flaw can be exploited to hijack user sessions.
Users are advised to upgrade to Apache Shiro version 2.1.1 or 3.0.0-alpha-2 or later, both of which address this vulnerability by invalidating the existing session and creating a new one with a different ID upon successful login.
