## Technical details

A vulnerability classified as Insufficient Session Expiration (CWE-613) exists in the '/banker/change-password.php' component of PHPGurukul Bank Locker Management System v1.0. The flaw stems from improper session invalidation and handling, which allows an attacker to perform a session fixation or hijacking attack. By setting or capturing a session ID before a victim authenticates, the attacker can maintain an active, authorized session once the victim logs in. This enables the attacker to gain unauthorized remote access to the banker's panel and perform administrative actions, such as changing account credentials. The attack requires minimal user interaction and is reachable over the network.
