CVE-2026-64829
Question2Answer 1.8.8 contains a flaw that lets attackers keep logged‑in after a password reset if they already have a remember‑me cookie. The bug is in the forgot‑password flow, which fails to clear a session code, so the old cookie still works.
No official fix yet. If none appears within 45 days of first tracking, this entry is removed automatically.
Who is affected
Website owners running Question2Answer version 1.8.8 or earlier.
Real-world impact
An attacker who has stolen a user’s remember‑me cookie can continue to access the account even after the user resets their password, effectively bypassing the password change.
Why this severity
The CVSS score of 9.1 reflects that the flaw gives attackers full confidentiality and integrity impact without needing any user interaction or special privileges, and the attack can be performed remotely with high effort but no authentication.
