CVE-2024-53990: AsyncHttpClient (AHC) library's `CookieStore` replaces explicitly defined `Cookie`s
(updated )
When making any HTTP request, the automatically enabled and self-managed CookieStore
(aka cookie jar) will silently replace explicitly defined Cookie
s with any that have the same name from the cookie jar. For services that operate with multiple users, this can result in one user’s Cookie
being used for another user’s requests.
