 This means that establishing an `HttpSession` would not be possible in step 3 because the session id could not be included in the already written response.
 Another situation that can happen is that if a client authenticates successfully, the response is committed before `SecurityContextPersistenceFilter` completes, and the client makes a second request before the `SecurityContextPersistenceFilter` completes the wrong authentication could be present in the second request.
