This method will automatically create a new session and session ID if none
exists.

+You can also set session keys by passing a list of key/value pairs or a

+=item session_expires
This method returns the time when the current session will expire, or 0 if
there is no current session. If there is a session and it already expired, it
will delete the session and return 0 as well.
-If the C<$reset> parameter is true, and there is a session ID the expiry time
-will be reset to the current time plus the time to live (see
-L</CONFIGURATION>). This is used when creating a new session.

=item flash
This is like Ruby on Rails' flash data structure. Think of it as a stash that
all the keys which haven't changed since the flash data was loaded at the end
of every request.
+Note that use of the flash is an easy way to get data across requests, but
+it's also strongly disrecommended, due it it being inherently plagued with
+race conditions. This means that it's unlikely to work well if your
+users have multiple tabs open at once, or if your site does a lot of AJAX
+requests.
+
+L<Catalyst::Plugin::StatusMessage> is the recommended alternative solution,
+as this doesn't suffer from these issues.
+
sub moose : Local {
my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
if ( exists $c->flash->{beans} ) { # false
-
+
}
}
For example:
- __PACKAGE__->config->{session}{expires} = 1000000000000; # forever
+ __PACKAGE__->config('Plugin::Session' => { expires => 10000000000 }); # "forever"
+ (NB If this number is too large, Y2K38 breakage could result.)
# later
Note that these values are not auto extended.
+=item change_session_id
+
+By calling this method you can force a session id change while keeping all
+session data. This method might come handy when you are paranoid about some
+advanced variations of session fixation attack.
+
+If you want to prevent this session fixation scenario:
+
+ 0) let us have WebApp with anonymous and authenticated parts
+ 1) a hacker goes to vulnerable WebApp and gets a real sessionid,
+ just by browsing anonymous part of WebApp
+ 2) the hacker inserts (somehow) this values into a cookie in victim's browser
+ 3) after the victim logs into WebApp the hacker can enter his/her session
+
+you should call change_session_id in your login controller like this:
+
+ if ($c->authenticate( { username => $user, password => $pass } )) {
+ # login OK
+ $c->change_session_id;
+ ...
+ } else {
+ # login FAILED
+ ...
+ }
+
+=item change_session_expires $expires
+
+You can change the session expiration time for this session;
+
+ $c->change_session_expires( 4000 );
+
+Note that this only works to set the session longer than the config setting.
