Impact

Ghost Admin did not invalidate existing sessions on login which could have allowed for session fixation attacks. Successful exploitation would have required another vulnerability on the same domain where Ghost Admin was hosted.

Patches

v6.54.1 contains a fix for this issue.

How to update
