Description
Apache::Session versions through 1.94 for Perl re-creates deleted sessions.
The session stores Apache::Session::Store::File and Apache::Session::Store::DB_File will create a session that does not exist. This can lead to sessions being revived, potentially with data that was to be deleted.
