A previous bug fix to API session-based authentication impacted SDK session-based authentication as including 'Prefer' header with 'Authorization' header bypassed the JSESSION cookie. Now, the JSESSION cookie is not bypassed and session-based authentication works as expected.

session based auth. is broken only for the /localhost, - removing 'blocker'. detailed explanation: ===================== REST-API introduced new functionality at #876641 to JSESSION based authentication, if HTTP header Prefer:persistent-auth is set and client sends the Authorization header as well, - will be re-initiated new JSESSION, what is made all clients sending both Prefer and Authorization headers to get authorised again using Authorization header and not JSESSION, correct behaviour is: ==================== 1. send Authorization & Prefer headers 2. store JSESSION returned in cookie 3. use for authorization Prefer header & JSESSION cookie disabling session based authentication: ====================================== 1. omit from request Prefer header 2. add Authorization header Verified in sf10 Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
