[Bug 1457405] Re: Unconditional sb-closed cookie incompatible with some sites

 

Removed reference to one client of mine who happens to prefer security
by obscurity over crystal box approaches. Clarified description a little
bit as well and changed report to public. Test cases available on
request, although shouldn't really be needed unless we want to
white/blacklist this cookie per site.

** Description changed:

- The sb-closed cookie added by bug #1329799 fix breaks some sites like
- https://www.op.fi/op
- 
- Extraneous cookies get classified as potential malware by several SSL
- sites, but please keep this part private for now / edit this line out of
- summary before disclosing this report.
+ The sb-closed cookie added by bug #1329799 fix breaks sites using WAFs
+ that classify extra cookies as malware or cookie poisoning.

** Information type changed from Private Security to Public
