Let's say a friend sends you an exe file, a game they made. You run it, and immediately realize it wasn't actually your friend. The attacker has stolen your JWT session cookie. The attacker hasn't done anything yet - they are configuring their browser cookies to match yours. You go to invalidate your session / change your password, but it doesn't help. The attacker has a full hour to do whatever they want on your account. They use it to send the same malicious exe from your account. If you would've been able to invalidate the session, you could've stopped it.
