CVE-2018-16495 · HIGH Severity

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

In VOS user session identifier (authentication token) is issued to the browser prior to authentication but is not changed after the user successfully logs into the application. Failing to issue a new session ID following a successful login introduces the possibility for an attacker to set up a trap session on the device the victim is likely to login with.
