Why are session id cookie values shorter on EAP 6?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Prior to EAP 6, session id cookie values were 32 characters long. Now on EAP 6, they are only 24 characters long. Why is this? Wouldn't this shorter value be more likely for a duplicate?

Environment

  • JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 6
