It's worth mentioning that checking request.isRequestedSessionIdFromURL() won't
stop session fixation attacks. The first request to Tomcat where a session is
created will put the JSESSIONID in both the cookie and querystring. An attacker
can shoulder-surf and read the JSESSIONID from the URL and craft their own
JSESSIONID cookie.
