Do you mean the *examples* app rather than the *welcome* app? If so, my 
understanding is that it exposes the cookie_key of the examples app itself, 
not the cookie_keys of any other apps -- so the risk is not that the 
session data of other apps will be compromised but that there is a 
different vulnerability via the examples app (which is therefore a risk of 
any installation, regardless of the type of sessions used in other apps), 
no?
