I'm not sure about why Tomcat 9 specifically might be doing this if
Tomcat <9 didn't, but this happens when:

1. An unauthenticated user makes a request
2. There was no session-id in the request
3. The server decided to create a session
4. The server can't prove that cookies are supported by the client

When all those things happen, all URLs (when "encoded") should contain
";jsessionid=" path parameters because the client might not accept the
Set-Cookie response header.

You can explicitly disable URL-based session-tracking if you'd like in
WEB-INF/web.xml:

  <session-config>
    <tracking-mode>COOKIE</tracking-mode>
  </session-config>

This will of course require cookies. I'm not sure if that's okay for you
.

As for your image URLs failing due to those path parameters... why are
they failing? Which component is generating those HTTP 500 responses?
