I have a grails 4 (based on spring boot) application that is experiencing sporadic failures. At this point I cannot find anything even pointing to what the problem may be, and hope that perhaps someone can assist.
The scenario where the error occurs is one application making a REST call to another. These are all made with a common username and password provided via basic authentication. At some point after the application has been running successfully (> 12 hours in most cases seen so far) these calls begin to fail with this error:
org.springframework.web.util.NestedServletException: Request processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: UT000010: Session is invalid XVBnzVaxVhijSIz2xk_Tl5fqsJD9n30ggd_614iF

Calls to the same endpoint with the same basic authentication from Postman succeed.
For these calls, security is configured as such:
http
.headers().frameOptions().sameOrigin().and()
.csrf().disable()
.requestMatcher(basicAuthMatcher)
.authorizeRequests()
.anyRequest().authenticated()
.and()
.httpBasic()
http.sessionManagement().sessionCreationPolicy(SessionCreationPolicy.STATELESS)
The parts that are suspicious to me are that the stack trace is coming out of SessionFlashMapManager. To my understanding there should be no session. There certainly is none that I intend to use.
Has anyone seen errors like this before, or have suggestions for how to diagnose it?
