CVE-2025-69602
Published: 28 January 2026
Summary
CVE-2025-69602 is a critical-severity Session Fixation (CWE-384) vulnerability in Altumcode 66Biolinks. Its CVSS base score is 9.1 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Browser Session Hijacking (T1185); ranked at the 25.0th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 SC-23 (Session Authenticity) and AC-12 (Session Termination).
Threat & Defense at a Glance
Threat & Defense Details
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI
Directly requires mechanisms to protect communications session authenticity, such as regenerating session identifiers after authentication to prevent fixation and hijacking.
Mandates management and periodic refreshing of authenticators, including session identifiers, to avoid reuse across authentications.
Enforces session termination after defined conditions, limiting the exploitation window for fixed sessions.
MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI
Why these techniques?
Session fixation directly enables browser session hijacking by allowing an attacker to control a session cookie that becomes valid post-authentication.
NVD Description
A session fixation vulnerability exists in 66biolinks v62.0.0 by AltumCode, where the application does not regenerate the session identifier after successful authentication. As a result, the same session cookie value is reused for users logging in from the same browser,…

allowing an attacker who can set or predict a session ID to potentially hijack an authenticated session.
Deeper analysisAI
CVE-2025-69602 is a session fixation vulnerability in 66biolinks version 62.0.0, a product developed by AltumCode. The flaw occurs because the application does not regenerate the session identifier after successful authentication, resulting in the reuse of the same session cookie value for users logging in from the same browser. This allows an attacker who can set or predict a session ID to potentially hijack an authenticated session. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-384 and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N). It was published on 2026-01-28T19:16:24.017.
The vulnerability can be exploited remotely by any unauthenticated attacker over the network with low attack complexity and no user interaction required. By injecting or predicting a session ID—such as through a crafted link or prior observation of session behavior—the attacker can fixate the session before a victim logs in. Upon successful authentication, the victim unwittingly adopts the attacker's session, enabling the attacker to hijack the session and access sensitive data or perform actions with the victim's privileges, compromising high confidentiality and integrity.
