Thank you for sharing the video. In regards to your question, session tokens can be vulnerable to theft and replication, especially if they are not properly secured. Hackers can use various techniques such as session fixation, session hijacking, and cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks to steal session tokens.

To defend against these attacks, it is important to use secure coding practices and implement security measures such as HTTPS encryption, secure cookies, and timeout mechanisms to limit the lifespan of session tokens. Additionally, implementing two-factor authentication and monitoring for unusual activity can also help detect and prevent unauthorized access.

It is crucial to stay informed on the latest security threats and updates to ensure that the appropriate measures are in place to protect against session token theft and other forms of cyber attacks.
