Revision history for Perl extension Catalyst::Plugin::Session
0.25 2009-0708
- Add the a change_session_id method which can be called after
authentication to change the user's session cookie whilst preserving
their session data. This can be used to provide protection from
Session Fixation attacks. (kmx)
0.24 2009-06-23
- Be more paranoid about getting values of $c->req to avoid issues
with old Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst.
- Check we have a modern version of TWMC before doing the tests which
need it.
0.23 2009-06-16
- Add the verify_user_agent config parameter (kmx)
- Add a test case to prove that logging in with a session cookie still
causes a new cookie to be issued for you, proving that the code is
not vulnerable to a session fixation attack. (t0m)
0.22 2009-05-13
- INSANE HACK to ensure B::Hooks::EndOfScope inlines us a new method right now
in Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Test::Store for Catalyst 5.80004 compatibility.
This change does not in any way affect normal users - it is just due to the
fairly crazy way that Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Test::Store works, and that
module is _only_ used for unit testing session store plugins pre-installation.
Session::Test::Store should be replaced with a more sane solution, and other
CPAN modules using it moved away from using it, but this change keeps stops
new Catalyst breaking other distributions right now.
0.21 2009-04-30
- Hide the internal packages in Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Test::Store from PAUSE.
- Convert from CAF to Moose with Moosex::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
0.20 2009-02-05
- No code changes since 0.19_01 dev release.
- Add IDEAS.txt which is an irc log of discussion about the next-generation
session plugin from discussion on #catalyst-dev
- Remove TODO file, which is no longer relevant.
0.19_01 2009-01-09
- Switch from using NEXT to Class::C3 for method re-dispatch.
- Use shipit to package the dist.
- Switch to Module::install.
- Flash data is now stored inside the session (key "__flash") to avoid
duplicate entry errors caused by simultaneous select/insert/delete of
flash rows when using DBI as a Store. (Sergio Salvi)
- Fix session finalization order that caused HTTP responses to be sent
before the session is actually finalized and stored in its Store.
(Sergio Salvi)
0.19 2007-10-08
0.18 2007-08-15
- Fix Apache engine issue (RT #28845)
0.17 2007-07-16
- Skip a test if Cookie is not installed (RT #28137)
0.16 2007-07-03
- Stupid makefile
0.15 2007-06-24
- Fix the bug that caused sessions to expire immediately when another
session was deleted previously in the same request cycle
- Changed finalize() to redispatch before saving session
so other finalize methods still have access to it.
0.14 2007-01-31
- Disable verify_address.
- update flash to work like session
0.13 2006-10-12
- Rerelease with slightly changed test due to a behavior change in
Test::MockObject
- add `clear_flash`
- improve debug logging
0.12 2006-08-26
- refactor out a hookable finalize_session method, for plugins
- make _clear_session_instance_data call NEXT::, so that plugins can
hook on to that too
0.11 2006-08-10
- Lazify expiry calculation and store it in a different instance data
slot. This provides greater flexibility for implementing hooks like
DynamicExpiry the "right" way.
0.10 2006-08-01
- Implement a more well defined finalization order for Session stuff.
This solves a problem that was introduced by some value cleanups in
the 0.06 release.
0.09 2006-07-31
- Fix Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Test::Store
0.08 2006-07-31
- rerelease because Module::Bane broke the META.yml. HURAAH
0.07 2006-07-30
- Make build tool complain loudly on incompatible versions of state
plugins.
0.06 2006-07-29
- Change State plugin API to be pull oriented
- Lazify more correctly (mostly performance improvements)
- Don't try to compute digest of hash when there is no hash
0.05 2006-01-01
- Un-workaround the Cache::FastMmap (actually Storable) limitation -
it's not C::P::Session's business.
- add $c->session_expires
- refactor guts
- improve semantics of session deletion (now deletes flash data too)
- improve lazy-load-ness of session data in the light of expiration
0.04 2005-12-28 09:42:00
- Work around a limitation in Cache::FastMmap - must store only
references, while expiration was an NV.
0.03 2005-12-26 10:22:00
- Lazify loading of session data for better performance and less chance
of race conditions
- support for $c->flash a la Ruby on Rails
- Fixed bug in sessionid algorithm detection.
- Separate __expires from the session data - we write it every time
- Lazify saving of session data for better performance and less chance
of race conditions
0.02 2005-11-23 09:40:00
- Doc fixes
- No more -Engine=Test
0.01 2005-11-14 12:41:00
