> Affects Versions: 0.7.0
> Reporter: Kevin Minder
> Fix For: Future
>
>
> Knox currently uses JSESSIONID for its session cookie. This is a very common
> cookie name and could possibly conflict with other services. Consideration
> should be given to using something more specific like KNOXSESSION. This is
> only one extra character BTW. This should be configurable. Some additional
> thought needs to be given regarding changing the default. The Hive JDBC
> driver at least may have added special support for replaying the JSESSIONID
> to optimize its interaction with Knox. Changing the default to be something
> different would require coordination there at a minimum.
