Version 2.x:
https://github.com/jooby-project/jooby/blob/v2.x/modules/jooby-pac4j/src/main/java/io/jooby/internal/pac4j/SessionStoreImpl.java#L39-L45
Version 3.x: https://github.com/jooby-project/jooby/blob/v3.6.1/modules/jooby-pac4j/src/main/java/io/jooby/internal/pac4j/SessionStoreImpl.java#L77-L84
Cause
In module pac4j io.jooby.internal.pac4j.SessionStoreImpl#get , it is used to handle sessions , and trying to get key value. In strToObject function ,it's trying to deserialize value when value starts with "b64~" , which might cause deserialization of untrusted data.
modules/jooby-pac4j/src/main/java/io/jooby/internal/pac4j/SessionStoreImpl.java
Here's a small demo using SessionStoreImpl#get to handle sessions ,and user can pass parameters.
