Could you explain this one a bit more?

I haven't used KOCT before so I don't know much about it. What's the KOCT user? 

Overall, it sounds like using the REST API would be better than using
offline_circ/service.pl although that would just delay resolving the cookie
auth issue.

This reminds me of a different bug where someone talked about having the cookie
path be more specific than /. 

Hmm food for thought...

No cookie? I wonder how it had a token but no cookie...

What do you mean by "when cookies were forbidden at all"?

Only for GETs. POSTs have to have a session and a CSRF token.
