Does using Redis as a session store will mitigate session replay attacks?

202 Views Asked by At

In Ruby on Rails security docs it written that using CookieStore as the session store is open to replay attack: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/security.html#replay-attacks-for-cookiestore-sessions

  1. Is it true if I only save the session_id?
  2. Does changing the session store to Redis will mitigate the vulnerability? see this commit: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/commit/ba7c1764be87f272759471bde01b92dcc147e952
