Hi,
I have an application which uses both struts1 & struts2. The login action was
recently moved to struts2. Immediately after the deployment we were notified
that one user is seeing a different user
information, so we had to move to older war files. I am not able to replicate
it. But after investigating the logs it seems like couple users were logged in
as soon as they requested the login page.
For the database entry to happen it has to verify the username and password in
the action class, but the fact that there is no POST entry at that time from
that IP in my access log makes me believe
that the action class some how already had that information from a prior user.
I do have a login filter to check if users are logged in when accessing other
pages. In this filter I have the below two lines, we had to do this as we will
have requests forwarded from one
application to another and when that happens we are getting class cast
exception for ActionMapping class and valueStack. Not sure if the behavior is a
side effect of having the below lines.
request.setAttribute("struts.actionMapping", new ActionMapping());
request.setAttribute("struts.valueStack", null);
We are using Struts 2.3.34 and Wildfly.
Appreciate any insights you might have.
Thanks,
Prasanth
