Security Bug - Users whose password have been changed can still access gitblit #657

Description

@gitblit

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 361

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Login as user Admin to gitblit on Firefox
2. Login as user Admin to gitblit on Chrome and change password for Admin user
3. You still have full access under the cookies on Firefox even though password has
been changed.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Users whose passwords have changed can still connect and make changes to their own
account if they have not logged out or deleted their cookies.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Current Release 1.3.2 on Windows Server 2012 and CentOS 6.4

Please provide any additional information below.
If an admin user leaves an organization but if he had accessed the gitblit server through
his browser at home he will still be able to access gitblit even after his password
has been changed and will have the ability to change back the admin password and create
havoc on the server.
