UserSeedProperty (Jenkins core 2.426 API)

java.lang.Object
- hudson.model.UserProperty
- - jenkins.security.seed.UserSeedProperty

All Implemented Interfaces:

ExtensionPoint, Describable<UserProperty>, ReconfigurableDescribable<UserProperty>
```
public class UserSeedProperty
extends UserProperty
```
The seed stored in this property is used to have a revoke feature on the session without having to hack the session management that depends on the application server used to run the instance. The seed is added to the session when a user just logged in and then for every request, before using the session information, we check the seed was not changed in the meantime. This feature allows the admin to revoke all the sessions that are in the wild without having to keep a list of them.

for the addition of seed inside the session, for the seed check from the session before using it
