--- Begin Message ---Package: iceweasel Version: 3.0.6-3 Severity: normal Iceweasel sends malformed Cookie:-headers. A common example are cookies from google-analytics, leading to this Cookie:-header: Cookie: __utma=73875437.8485834585.4574587886.4535834548.4574587458.1; __utmz=83474878.9498399889.1.1.utmcsr=(direct)|utmccn=(direct)|utmcmd=(none); __utmv=77383838.Lead The problem here is the __utmz cookie, which contains seperator characters (neither "=", "(", nor ")" are allowed unquoted). I tested three server backend implementations and all stop parsing at the first "=". This is often not an issue as those cookies come last, but when an application-specific cookie comes after those, many implementations fail to see it because of the mangled cookie value. (the definition of an unquoted value can be found e.g. in rfc2616). The solution is to properly quote the value (as quoted-string). -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages iceweasel depends on: ii debianutils 2.30 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii fontconfig 2.6.0-3 generic font configuration library hi libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.0-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.12-1~lenny1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libnspr4-0d 4.7.1-4 NetScape Portable Runtime Library ii libstdc++6 4.4.1-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii procps 1:3.2.7-11 /proc file system utilities ii psmisc 22.6-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii xulrunner-1.9 1.9.0.14-0lenny1 XUL + XPCOM application runner iceweasel recommends no packages.
