Comment:

 As described in the RFC, in a cookie value a backslash "\" is not to be
 used.

 The issue is that a " will be seen as the end of the cookie value on every
 device in the middle (WAF) and therefore not the full cookie value will
 get through to the webserver.

 Please let me know if you need more guidance.
