Released 2.4.1
== Changelog ==

= 2.4.1 =
*Release Date - 5 Jan, 2021*

* Fix Bruteforce countermeasure, to avoid logout of the legit logged user in certain cases
More specifically, when an user account were detected as bruteforced, the code was following with a logout, that is based than by (cookie) ID.
If a fake session presented, then also the legit logged in user were logged out.
It has been fixed.
