ASP.NET: Security Breech

Hello,

I've one website and around 500 users concurrently logged in at global level.

Yesterday, one user reported one issue that once he tried to log-in then he saw different user name automatically in text box at login page.

Could you please assist me, what are the different reasons for that?

FYI, we are using form authentication in the application.

Best Regards

It is very difficult to identify such issue without detail analysis and there can be any problem, I may recommend to check following things first:
You may have to check your login authentication, check if login are unique?
make sure that you are managing session properly.
if you are using claim/token for authorization then make sure, your code is not generating duplicate token/claims.

I am not using claim/token. Please find below exact situations:


This issue is happening often to users, where they type in their username and password and then login, and the system refreshes the page and it pops up with someone elses username and then the password is blank

Are you working in a load-balanced environment? It sounds like you've got session issues.
No, load balanced is not implemented.

Mohit,

In such case you may have to post related Login Page code (all related aspx/cs and js)
Lately, came to know output cache was implemented. I've removed and didn't get any issue so far.
