For many years, the\n\t     intention and usage of this CWE entry has evolved to\n\t     include many notions of \"sessions\" that are not specific\n\t     to the web. Instead of expanding the scope of this entry,\n\t     it was split into multiple separate entries.  The\n\t     original WASC-47 entry [REF-1520] includes considerations\n\t     forcing re-authentication for \"inactivity\" (expiring\n\t     sessions after a period of inactivity) versus \"absolute\"\n\t     (a fixed expiration time), with a goal to \"keep the\n\t     lifespan of a session ID as short as possible.\"  However,\n\t     this CWE was also used for situations in which a session\n\t     is not fully invalidated or terminated upon logout, which\n\t     is a different weakness than the original intention for\n\t     this entry.  There is also evidence that this CWE entry\n\t     was used for session fixation (CWE-384)."}}, "Content_History": {"Submission": {"Submission_Name": "WASC", "Submission_Date": "2007-05-07",
