Description
The current session management system needs enhancements for production readiness, including better user experience, security monitoring, and scalability features.
What's Working
- JWT with refresh tokens (15min access, 30-day refresh)
- Session limits (5 max per user) with auto-cleanup
- Database persistence for session tracking
- Proper token rotation and revocation
- Basic error handling
Production Concerns
- Session limit too low for multi-device users
- No session metadata (device, location, IP)
- No user-facing session management
- Limited security monitoring
- No "Remember this device" functionality
Proposed Improvements
1. Increase Session Limits
// Current: 5 sessions max
// Proposed: 10-15 sessions for production
const MAX_SESSIONS: u32 = 15;2. Add Session Metadata
-- Database schema improvements
ALTER TABLE refresh_tokens ADD COLUMN device_name VARCHAR(100);
ALTER TABLE refresh_tokens ADD COLUMN ip_address INET;
ALTER TABLE refresh_tokens ADD COLUMN user_agent TEXT;
ALTER TABLE refresh_tokens ADD COLUMN location VARCHAR(100);
ALTER TABLE refresh_tokens ADD COLUMN is_remembered BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE;3. Enhanced Session Model
#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
pub struct SessionInfo {
pub id: Uuid,
pub device_name: String,
pub ip_address: String,
pub user_agent: String,
pub location: Option<String>,
pub created_at: DateTime<Utc>,
pub last_active: DateTime<Utc>,
pub is_current: bool,
pub is_remembered: bool,
}4. Session Management API
// New endpoints
GET /api/v1/users/sessions // List user's active sessions
DELETE /api/v1/users/sessions/{id} // Revoke specific session
POST /api/v1/users/sessions/revoke-all // Revoke all except current5. Frontend Session Management UI
interface Session {
id: string;
device: string;
location: string;
lastActive: Date;
isCurrent: boolean;
isRemembered: boolean;
}
// Components needed:
// - SessionList component
// - SessionCard component
// - RevokeSessionButton component
// - SessionManagementPageSecurity & Monitoring (Low Priority)
6. Security Enhancements
// Suspicious activity detection
- Multiple logins from different countries
- Unusual login times
- Failed login attempts tracking
- Device fingerprinting
- Rate limiting for login attempts7. Session Analytics
// Admin dashboard features
- Active sessions per user
- Session duration analytics
- Geographic login patterns
- Device usage statisticsSuccess Metrics
User Experience
- Session limit increased to 15
- Users can view their active sessions
- Users can revoke individual sessions
- "Remember this device" functionality
- Session activity tracking
Security
- Session metadata collection
- Suspicious activity detection
- Failed login attempt tracking
- Geographic login monitoring
Performance
- Session queries optimized
- Database indexes added
- Session cleanup automation
- Memory usage monitoring
Additional Notes
Current Session Flow
- User logs in → Creates new session
- Token refresh → Creates new session (revokes old)
- Session limit reached → Auto-revoke oldest
- Session expires → Automatic cleanup
Proposed Enhanced Flow
- User logs in → Creates session with metadata
- Token refresh → Updates session activity
- Session limit reached → Show user session management
- Suspicious activity → Alert user/admin
- Session expires → Automatic cleanup with analytics
Testing Requirements
- Unit tests for new session methods
- Integration tests for session API
- E2E tests for session management UI
- Performance tests for session queries
- Security tests for session validation
