Problem
- This code in
drupal_settings_initialize()
belongs to the responsibility of the session handler:// To prevent session cookies from being hijacked, a user can configure the
// SSL version of their website to only transfer session cookies via SSL by
// using PHP's session.cookie_secure setting. The browser will then use two
// separate session cookies for the HTTPS and HTTP versions of the site. So we
// must use different session identifiers for HTTPS and HTTP to prevent a
// cookie collision.
if ($is_https) {
ini_set('session.cookie_secure', TRUE);
}
$prefix = ini_get('session.cookie_secure') ? 'SSESS' : 'SESS';
session_name($prefix . substr(hash('sha256', $session_name), 0, 32));
Proposed solution
- Move those lines into
drupal_session_initialize()
in session.inc.
