Root Cause Analysis
Session fixation vulnerabilities typically occur when an application fails to generate a new session ID after successful authentication. The login endpoint (handled by LoginRestApi.postLogin
in Zeppelin) is the most logical location for this missing security control. While no direct patch code is shown, the CVE description and standard session fixation mitigation patterns strongly indicate this authentication handler as the vulnerable function
where session regeneration would need to be implemented in the patched version.
