Bug 194906 – Same Site Lax cookies are not sent with cross-site redirect from client-initiated load

• Component: Page Loading
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Daniel Bates]

You can see this using Twitter. Here is one way to trigger this bug:

1. Sign into Twitter.com.
2. Visit <https://iosdevweekly.com/issues/388#HfB24p3>.
3. Command + click the twitter.com hyperlink

Then the opened page will display the error message "403 Forbidden: Then server understood the request, but is refusing to fulfill it." But you should see the linked tweet.

Looks good. I thought of some ideas for possible future improvements (see comments).

It looks like the concept of 'isTopSite' is used elsewhere in FrameLoader (e.g., L2871). I wonder if we should have a helper:

bool isTopSite(bool isMainResource) const  { return isMainResource && m_frame.isMainFrame(); }

Do we have a test for Same-Site HTTP-only cookies that are visible servers, but are not exposed to DOM? That's not really relevant to this Lax cookie case, but would be good to make sure we never regress HTTP-only cookies being isolated from the WebContent process.

Will clean up using a local variable, isMainResource, is a param specific to this function.

No, we don't.

Lacking test coverage for HTTP only cookies in general. Anyway, this is tangential to this bug. So, I suggest we solve the test shortage in another. Feel free to open such a bug.

This failure reveals an existing bug. That is, this patch did not cause a regression. As the primary purpose of this test and this bug is the behavior of Same Site Lax cookies I have amended the test and test result to skip the failing sub-test for now to get the bots green. Committed fix in <https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/241931>. Will investigate the sub-test failure in bug #194933.
