From http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs92/security/thin_client.html:

... a Web site designer can ensure that session stealing is not a
problem by making all sensitive data require HTTPS.

Don't know if that helps.

Hi,

I have a question regarding security for cookies. We
are using cookies for session tracking. But we are
concerned that some malicious user could get session
id stored in the cookie.

Our testing team got this:

Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=5H5EJCZrWZw-V4l2JuC8wNnUimE;
path=/app; secure

So, they are concerned that this sessionid could be
used for attack on the site and suggested using
httponly flag.

Do you think this compromise our security and is there
a workaround.

Thanks,

Pankaj
