An insufficient session expiration vulnerability [CWE- 613] in FortiClientEMS versions 6.4.2 and below, 6.2.8 and below may allow an attacker to reuse the unexpired admin user session IDs to gain admin privileges, should the attacker be able to obtain that session ID (via other, hypothetical attacks)
Source: NIST NVD / MITRE CVE Database
The vulnerability stems from the lack of proper session expiration mechanisms, enabling attackers to maintain unauthorized access if they can intercept a valid session ID.
