This is CVE-2008-3222.

Isn't this different?

It refers to http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2008/07/10/3
which is a bug fixed in 5.8.

The issue I'm talking about is _not_ fixed in 5.8.

My interpretation of this new advisory is that they meant to fix the
session fixation in 5.8, but they didn't.  The original advisory covered
multiple other issues as well.  So this new advisory might better be
considered a clarification of versions for the session fixation, rather
than a regression error or incomplete fix (which would require a new CVE).

Granted, the lack of specifics from Drupal makes it difficult to be
certain about what happened.

Yes, I have no idea either but at least the patch stayed the 
same.

Cheers
Nico
