Solutions
- Ensure GET /code/image is requested in the same session before login submit.
- Verify the JSESSIONID cookie is present on both requests.
- Use a shared session store (Redis) or sticky sessions in clusters.
- Check session timeout is sufficient.
Example fix
// before POST /authentication/form imageCode=ABCD // no prior GET /code/image -> 不存在 // after GET /code/image // populates session ImageCode POST /authentication/form imageCode=ABCD // same JSESSIONID cookie
Defensive patterns
Strategy: retry
Validate before calling
// ensure a captcha exists in this session before allowing submit
fetch('/code/image', { credentials: 'same-origin' })
.then(() => enableLoginForm()); Prevention
- Fetch GET /code/image in the same session before login submit.
- Send the JSESSIONID cookie on both requests.
- Use sticky sessions or a shared session store in clusters.
When it happens
Trigger: POST to login with a non-empty imageCode but no ImageCode object in the session - /code/image was not called for this session, or a different session is submitting.
Common situations: JSESSIONID cookie blocked; captcha image endpoint never hit; session expired before submit; clustered deployment without shared sessions; the image captcha was superseded by the SMS flow in testing.
