Technical details
A vulnerability exists in the user management logic of Bludit CMS within the disableUser() function in bl-kernel/users.class.php. While the application invalidates the password field by prefixing it with a '!' character, it fails to clear the tokenAuth and tokenRemember fields in the JSON database (bl-content/databases/users.php). An attacker with a pre-existing, valid 'Remember Me' cookie can bypass the account disablement because the authentication subsystem validates the cookie against the uncleared database tokens. This allows a deactivated user to maintain a valid session with their original privileges. The issue is resolved in version 3.22.0 by ensuring these tokens are cleared upon account deactivation.
