You are auditing a web application and notice that the session IDs are predictable and sequential. Why might this be a security concern?
- Session fixation attack
- XSS attack
- CSRF attack
- SQL injection attack
Predictable and sequential session IDs make the application vulnerable to a session fixation attack, where an attacker can set a user's session ID. This poses a significant security risk. Other attacks like XSS, CSRF, and SQL injection are unrelated to session ID predictability.
