I did further testing and verified that using UUIDs for the cftokens
does not address the security vulnerability. If you specify that you
want to use UUIDs, CF Server doesn't seem to check that the token is a
valid UUID.

On the other hand, using jsessions behaves as expected. If you clear
out the jsessionid, you get assigned a new one on the next page hit.
