>                 Key: WW-5841
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-5841
>             Project: Struts 2
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Core
>            Reporter: Gouri Sankar A
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 7.5.0

>          Time Spent: 40m
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h

> StrutsBootServer embeds Tomcat and does not set a session tracking mode, so 
> the context
> falls back to Tomcat's default of COOKIE and URL. The session cookie also has 
> no SameSite
> attribute.
> Effects on main:
> - A session id sent in the URL (/app.action;jsessionid=<id>) is accepted as 
> the session.
> - Tomcat's encodeURL appends ;jsessionid=<id> to links generated by <s:url> 
> and <s:a>,
>   which puts the session id in rendered pages and in Referer headers.
> - Set-Cookie for JSESSIONID carries no SameSite attribute.
> Fix: restrict the context to cookie-only session tracking and set 
> SameSite=Lax on the
> session cookie. THREAT_MODEL.md section 5 lists both as Boot defaults.
> Secure is not forced, because the embedded connector is plain HTTP
