Apache Answer versions up to 2.0.1 are vulnerable due to insufficient session expiration, allowing administrative API keys to remain active even after an administrator's account is demoted or marked inactive. This could lead to unauthorized access and potential exploitation of administrative privileges. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize upgrading to version 2.0.2 to mitigate this risk.
