Cookie and Set-Cookie Analyzer

Separate Cookie request pairs from Set-Cookie response instructions and review their flags.

How this tool works

Set-Cookie can declare Secure, HttpOnly, SameSite, Path, Domain, Max-Age, and Expires. The analyzer makes omissions and malformed lifetime attributes visible.

Static inspection cannot establish whether a browser accepts a cookie under its origin, TLS, and third-party policy context.

Examples

  • Check SameSite=None with Secure.
  • Compare request Cookie and response Set-Cookie.
  • Inspect malformed Max-Age.

Common use cases

Check response cookie flags during login debugging.

Worked synthetic example

Valid example

Set-Cookie: sid=sample; SameSite=None

Expected: Cookie attributes plus a missing Secure warning. The warning flags a browser compatibility concern; acceptance depends on context.

Failure or warning to recognize

Warning / interpretation

Set-Cookie: sid=sample; SameSite=None without Secure

Expected: SameSite=None without Secure produces a warning, not proof of whether this browser accepted the cookie.
