Summary
In IBM Aspera Shares versions 1.9.9 through 1.11.0, sessions are not invalidated after a password reset, which could allow an authenticated user to impersonate another user on the system.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated user can exploit a non-invalidated session to impersonate another user, potentially leading to unauthorized access to data or actions within the system.
Recommendation
Upgrade IBM Aspera Shares to a version later than 1.11.0 that fixes session invalidation after password change. Also consider implementing session monitoring mechanisms.
