Description

In Apache HTTP Server 2.4 release 2.4.37 and prior, mod_session checks the session expiry time before decoding the session. This causes session expiry time to be ignored for mod_session_cookie sessions since the expiry time is loaded when the session is decoded.

Solution(s)

  • ibm-http_server-apply-fix-pack-9_0_0_11
  • ibm-http_server-apply-interim-fix-ph06010-for-9_0
