Package name php-session
Date April 23rd, 2007
Advisory ID MDKA-2007:027
Affected versions 2007.0
Synopsis Updated php-session packages address session removal error

Problem Description

The php-session package includes a cron setting to remove PHP sessions
that are no longer in use. Previously, it could expire the session
even if it was still in use. This update will prevent the cron job
from removing sessions that are still actively being used, and will
only expire after the last action done in the session is older than
the number of minutes defined in /var/lib/php/maxlifetime.
