RememberMe adds invalid path to Cookie
--------------------------------------
Key: JBSEAM-4660
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBSEAM-4660
Project: Seam
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Security
Affects Versions: 2.2.0.GA
Reporter: Florian Specker
When deploying into the root context of JBoss AS (war-file is names ROOT.war), the context
path is the empty string. RememberMe checks the context path against null values before
adding setting it in the Cookie, but not against empty values. A Cookie with the path set
to "" is refused by some browsers (tested on Safari on iPhoneOS 3.1.3). When the
path is set to /, the Cookie is accepted as expected.
As a workaround, I subclassed RememberMe and overwrote getCookiePath():
@Override
public String getCookiePath() {
// do not send empty path - this confuses safari for iPhone
String path = super.getCookiePath();
return "".equals(path) ? "/" : path;
}
