Execute the below command using Gradle from the project directory:

./gradlew bootRun

Alternatively, if you're using Maven, execute the following command from the project directory:

./mvnw spring-boot:run

To test the application, open a web browser and navigate to: http://localhost:8080 img.png

As we did when verifying session fixation protection, we will need to access two web browsers by performing the following steps:

  1. In Google Chrome, log in to the site as user1@example.com/user1.
  2. Now, in Firefox, log in to the site as the same user.
  3. Finally, go back to Google Chrome and take any action. You will see a message indicating that your session has expired, as shown in the following screenshot: img.png

If you were using this application and received this message, you'd probably be confused. This is because it's obviously not a friendly method of being notified that only a single user can access the application at a time. However, it does illustrate that the session has been forcibly expired by the software.
