BTW, I wrote some example URLs. http://example.com/ is also vulunerable. Attackers can use httponly and secure attributes. I'm stunned by a browser prefers non-httponly cookie over httponly cookie years ago. In general, http://example.com/ is the safest URL, but not secure. Regards, -- Yasuo Ohgaki yohgaki@ohgaki.net
