The procedure necessary for session resumption is denoted as Failover Procedure and is of course application-specific. For an FTP download for example, the failover procedure could mean to tell the new FTP server the file name and the last received data position. By that, the FTP server will be able to resume the download session.
The resumption tickets are created by either the server or the client, and may be used in the handshake protocol, if both parties hold the same resumption ticket, indexed by a resumption identifier. The resumption secret is used to derive the next session key, authenticator and encapsulated (independent) resumption ticket/identifier.
In computer science, session hijacking, sometimes also known as cookie hijacking, is the exploitation of a valid computer session —sometimes also called a session key —to gain unauthorized access to information or services in a computer system. In particular, it is used to refer to the theft of a magic cookie used to authenticate a user to ...
Session fixation. In computer network security, session fixation attacks attempt to exploit the vulnerability of a system that allows one person to fixate (find or set) another person's session identifier. Most session fixation attacks are web based, and most rely on session identifiers being accepted from URLs (query string) or POST data.
Consistent hashing. In computer science, consistent hashing[1][2] is a special kind of hashing technique such that when a hash table is resized, only keys need to be remapped on average where is the number of keys and is the number of slots. In contrast, in most traditional hash tables, a change in the number of array slots causes nearly all ...
RSocket is a binary protocol for use on byte stream transports such as TCP, WebSockets, and Aeron. It enables the following symmetric interaction models via async message passing over a single connection: request/response (stream of 1) request/stream (finite stream of many) fire-and-forget (no response) channel (bi-directional streams)
Session poisoning (also referred to as "session data pollution" and "session modification") is a method to exploit insufficient input validation within a server application. Typically a server application that is vulnerable to this type of exploit will copy user input into session variables. The underlying vulnerability is a state management ...
HTTP persistent connection, also called HTTP keep-alive, or HTTP connection reuse, is the idea of using a single TCP connection to send and receive multiple HTTP requests /responses, as opposed to opening a new connection for every single request/response pair. The newer HTTP/2 protocol uses the same idea and takes it further to allow multiple ...
