Google Analytics _gid wrong expiration

Hello everyone,

I recently scanned a new website and one of the results was the '_gid' cookie.

The issue is that it has 'session' as expiration period wich is wrong according to Google's documentation, which mentions that it expires within 24 hours.
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/cookie-usage

I also made a test with the browser and I confirm that the expiration is 24 hours.

Is there any way to be able to change that default value from the management platform? Or update it with the correct one?

Thank you in advance!
