Error with cookie-value when adding a new Spring Session

yglodt :

In my Spring Boot 1.4 based application I use Spring Session to store session data in the database with JDBC.

This works fine with the default session. But when I want to add a new session (by adding ?_s=1 to the application url) I get the following exception:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: An invalid character [32] was present in the Cookie value

What is the issue here?

Edit: Note that I do not set the cookie value myself, Spring Session does that. Thus I can not tell which value it tries to set.

The complete stacktrace is here:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: An invalid character [32] was present in the Cookie value

Vedran Pavic :

This is due to Tomcat's cookie processing being changed to a RFC 6265 compliant implementation by default in 8.5, which does not allow space (character 32), among others.

As a workaround, you can configure Tomcat to use legacy cookie processor. To do this with Spring Boot, register an EmbeddedServletContainerCustomizer @Bean like this:

@Bean
public EmbeddedServletContainerCustomizer customizer() {
    return container -> {
        if (container instanceof TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory) {
            TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory tomcat = (TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory) container;
            tomcat.addContextCustomizers(context -> context.setCookieProcessor(new LegacyCookieProcessor()));
        }
    };
}

Also see spring-projects/spring-session#gh-605 to track the progress of fixing this in Spring Session.

Update:

The above described solution is valid for Spring Boot 1.x. Starting with Spring Boot 2.0, EmbeddedServletContainerCustomizer has been replaced with WebServerFactoryCustomizer as described in the Spring Boot 2.0 migration guide.

Also note that starting with Spring Session 2.0, session cookie is Base64 encoded by default which prevents the original problem from occurring.
