Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Invalidate Logged Out Cookies version 0.1.1 as active, updated 16y ago and tested up to WordPress 2.9.
Overview
About this plugin
0
WordPress’ auth cookies include a built-in expiration date (either 2 or 14 days depending on if the ‘Remember Me’ option is checked). Even if you remove the client-side cookie (by manually logging out or just closing your browser if ‘Remember Me’ wasn’t checked when logging in) the data that was stored within the cookie is still valid until the expiration date is reached.
This could be an issue if someone managed to “steal” your cookie(s). They would still be able to access your website for some time into the future.
This plugin will immediately invalidate your auth cookies when you manually log out. This, of course, also means that you have to manually click ‘Log out’ for this plugin to work properly (you can’t just close your browser to remove any cookies that expire at the end of the session). This won’t prevent session hijacking, but should limit the amount of time that an attacker can access your website.
