Brendon created CXF-6862:
----------------------------
Summary: Quoted path field in Cookies appears to be ignored by
Chrome and Firefox
Key: CXF-6862
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6862
Project: CXF
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JAX-RS
Affects Versions: 3.1.6, 3.1.5
Reporter: Brendon
I am attempting to update a project from v3.1.4 to v3.1.6 which includes a fix
for RFC 2109 compliance (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6729) but
have hit a problem.
The problem is that since 3.1.5, the cookie path field is wrapped in quotations
if it has a special character. This quoted path appears to be ignored by
Firefox and Chrome (it does work in Safari though).
Example:
Our code base is setting path=/ to specify the root path.
This gets wrapped in quotations in NewCookieHeaderProvider's toString and sent
to the browser (Firefox).
Firefox then sees it as ""/"" and ignores it (presumable as "/" is not a valid
path).
The cookie is then set on the current path and not the root path.
This was not an issue in 3.1.4
