## Overview

"Remember me" cookie age is not verified on the server. This potentially allows an attacker to intercept a valid cookie and reuse it indefinitely, even after the configured expiration time has passed.
This issue affects all Apache Shiro versions from 1.2.4 through 2.x, and 3.0.0-alpha-1, only when RememberMe functionality is enabled.


Upgrade to version 3.0.0 or later, which fixes the issue.

## Affected packages

- `org.apache.shiro:shiro-core >= 1.2.4, < 3.0.0`
- `org.apache.shiro:shiro-web >= 1.2.4, < 3.0.0`

## Remediation

Upgrade to a patched release:

- `org.apache.shiro:shiro-core 3.0.0`
- `org.apache.shiro:shiro-web 3.0.0`
