# CVE-2019-5647: Rapid7 AppSpider Chrome Plugin Insufficient Session Expiration

- Severity: CVSS 4.4 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2020-01-22 · Updated: 2024-09-17

## Affected

- Rapid7 AppSpider: 3.8.213 only

## Description

The Chrome Plugin for Rapid7 AppSpider can incorrectly keep browser sessions active after recording a macro, even after a restart of the Chrome browser. This behavior could make future session hijacking attempts easier, since the user could believe a session was closed when it was not. This issue affects Rapid7 AppSpider version 3.8.213 and prior versions, and is fixed in version 3.8.215.
