Description Florian Best

2021-03-17 11:05:32 CET

The UMC-Web-Server limits the use of the UMC-Session to the IP address (introduced in Bug #26635, Bug #26637).

There is a check, which also allows a special case for a switch from IPv4 to IPv6 for Apache (by treating ::1 == 127.0.0.1).

We should also allow that requests against 127.0.0.1 / ::1 overtake/use any session.
This is required for the Portal to use the same session for querying the available modules and categories.
