timed out

Session automatically ended

Timed out describes something that has exceeded its allotted time and been automatically terminated or invalidated.

A computer session times out after inactivity; a sports play times out when the clock expires.

My login timed out while I was getting coffee.

The phrase implies an external limit was reached, not a deliberate ending.
