Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of IBM WebSphere Application Server * * Full Profile versions 7.0, 8.0, and 8.5.5 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Enhance the WebContainer custom * * property * * com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.HTTPOnlyCookies * * to support the wild card character in * * the cookie name. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** A cookie name can be configured to have the HTTPOnly attribute. It is configured using the WebContainer custom property com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.HTTPOnlyCookies This property accepts the following values: * - An asterisk value means that all cookies are given the HTTPOnly attribute. A comma delimited list of the specific cookies that are given the HTTPOnly attribute. The HTTPOnly attribute is only given to cookies that are on this list. It does not accept the wild card character as part of the cookie
Problem conclusion
The WebContainer code was modified to enhance the WebContainer custom property to allow the wild card character to be used as part of the cookies. The following examples illustrate how the custom property can be used: com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.HTTPOnlyCookies=* com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.HTTPOnlyCookies=cookieName1,Account3Cook ie,JsessionID com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.HTTPOnlyCookies= postFixCookieName*, middleCookie*Name, *_preFixCookieName The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix packs 7.0.0.37, 8.0.0.10, and 8.5.5.5.
