A Session Fixation issue was discovered in Bigtree before 4.2.24. admin.php accepts a user-provided PHP session ID instead of regenerating a new one after a user has logged in to the application. The Session Fixation could allow an attacker to hijack an admin session.
Authenticating a user, or otherwise establishing a new user session, without invalidating any existing session identifier gives an attacker the opportunity to steal authenticated sessions.
