Need help in migrating a Python2 custom middleware to current Python3 version

class ExtendUserSession(MiddlewareMixin):

    """
    Extend authenticated user's sessions so they don't have to log back in
    following 15 minutes (set by Django's default `SESSION_COOKIE_AGE` setting).
    """
    def process_request(self, request, get_response):
        current_user = request.user
        # Only extend the session for auth'd users
        if request.user.is_authenticated:
            reason = CsrfViewMiddleware('get_response').process_view(request, None, (), {})
            if reason:
                # process_view returns HTTPException
                pass
        else:
                # process_view returns None - No error on HTTP request from CSRF middleware verification
            request.session.set_expiry(86400)

In this method, the admin can log in inside the website but after any post request, the session gets expires and returns to the login page
