             Summary: Disable URL rewrites with SessionID to avoid session 
hijacking
                 Key: FEDIZ-152
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FEDIZ-152
             Project: CXF-Fediz
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: IDP, OIDC
            Reporter: Jan Bernhardt
            Assignee: Jan Bernhardt
             Fix For: 1.3.0


if Cookies are disabled within the Browser the servlet container (like Tomcat) 
will usually switch to URL rewriting, by adding the JSessionID to the URL.
This is dangerous because users tend to copy URLs from their browser and post 
them in chat or public forums, thus allowing someone else to hijack their 
session.

Therefor it is best practice to ensure that a sessionID will not be included 
within the URL.
