Jim Manico commented on SHIRO-351:
----------------------------------
Just a polite note, Session Id's in URL's are a serious vulnerability
(session rewriting). In general, GET request parameters should never
contain sensitive data since they leak (bookmarks, proxy/web server
logs, referrer headers, etc).
Forgive me if this is already known or inappropriate. I'm new here. :)
Aloha,

> Shiro Native Session implementation cannot extract JSESSIONID From URL if
> JSESSIONID is URL parameter (not HTTP parameter)
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SHIRO-351
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHIRO-351
> Project: Shiro
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Web
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0
> Environment: N/A
> Reporter: Gareth Collins
>
> The background for this issue is here:
> http://shiro-user.582556.n2.nabble.com/Shiro-Native-Sessions-quot-JSESSIONID-quot-or-quot-JSESSIONID-quot-td7367217.html
> In summary the issue is that Shiro supports extracting JSESSIONID from urls
> of this format:
> http://www.mycompany.com/myResource?JSESSIONID=ABCDEF
> but not of this format (this URL format is generated by HTTPServletResponse
> encodeURL method and is Servlet specification 2.5 compliant):
> http://www.mycompany.com/myResource;JSESSIONID=ABCDEF
> Shiro should be able to support both URL formats.
