NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream typo3-src package and not the typo3-src package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The Authentication component in TYPO3 6.2.0 before 6.2.3 does not properly invalidate timed out user sessions, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via unspecified vectors.
