Hm. Your bug doesn't agree with my interpretation of the RFC's.
RFC2109 section 4.1 states that the the cookie name (attr) is of type
"token", which in RFC2068 section 2.2 is defined as any chars excluding
control characters and special characters. RFC2068 lists special
characters as
tspecials = "(" | ")" | "<" | ">" | "@"
| "," | ";" | ":" | "\" | <">
| "/" | "[" | "]" | "?" | "="
| "{" | "}" | SP | HT
... so the ":" in a cookie name should not be allowed.
RFC2965 and RFC2616 (which obsolete the above RFC's) state the same thing.
Either I'm wrong or the other languages you cite are differing from the
RFC. Do you have any idea why they might be doing that?
