Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Gitea. An attacker who steals a user's "Remember Me" token can maintain unauthorized access to the user's account. This occurs because the system fails to invalidate the attacker's session even after the legitimate user logs out or changes their password. This vulnerability can lead to persistent unauthorized access and potential compromise of user data.
