Adding "Test for Simultaneous sessions" in Session Management Testing #1110

Closed 0xmaximus closed 5 months ago

0xmaximus commented 7 months ago

What's the issue? The Session Management Testing section does not mention that a secure application should verify the number of active sessions for each correct username and password. For example, in a high-risk admin panel containing extensive Personally Identifiable Information (PII) data, it is crucial to effectively manage active sessions.

How do we solve it? I want to add a test case or a general guideline for this section.

Would you like to be assigned to this issue?

Seems reasonable to me. Go for it.
