## Overview

Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 did not invalidate all other active sessions for a user when that user's password was changed. As a result, any pre-existing sessions (including those potentially controlled by an attacker) remained valid after a credential update. This insufficient session expiration could allow continued unauthorized access to user data and actions even after a password change.

## Affected

- `nagios_xi < 2024`
- `nagios_xi = 2024`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `nagios_xi 2024`
