Jan Dittberner commented on WFLY-3642:
--------------------------------------
This is an issue that came from an OWASP-Test for one of our web frontend applications.
There is a corresponding article in the OWASP wiki
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Insufficient_Session-ID_Length.
Our customer has a requirement of 160 Bits of session id lengths defined by the security
department. 18 characters of base64 encoded data does not provide sufficient length to
fulfill this required length.
{code:python}>>> 64**18 < 2**128
True{code}
Make length of session id configurable
--------------------------------------
Key: WFLY-3642
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-3642
Project: WildFly
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Web (Undertow)
Affects Versions: 8.1.0.Final, 8.2.0.Final
Environment: any
Reporter: Jan Dittberner
Priority: Minor
At the moment the session ids generated by WildFly/Undertow are of a fixed length of 18
characters. The used
[
SecureRandomSessionIdGenerator|https://github.com/undertow-io/undertow/bl...]
allows for setting a custom length but this capability is not used in WildFly yet.
It would be nice to have this capability in the [web subsystem
configuration|https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY8/Undertow+(web)+...].
