When a client sends a request with a non-existent session cookie, JBoss EAP 7 / RHSSO responds with an incorrect JSESSIONID Cookie reusing the non-existent session id

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • When a client sends a request with a non-existent session cookie to a web application which does not use HttpSession (for example, just static HTML page or using their own custom cookie in the application), JBoss EAP 7 responds with an incorrect JSESSIONID response cookie as it reuses the requested non-existent session id.
  • When a client sends a request with a non-existent JSESSIONID Cookie to the "/auth" application on RHSSO, RHSSO responds with JSESSIONID response cookie reusing the requested non-existent session id incorrectly.
