Cookie with SameSite Attribute None

  • Risk:

  • Low

  • Type:
  • Passive
Summary

A cookie has been set with its SameSite attribute set to “none”, which means that the cookie can be sent as a result of a ‘cross-site’ request. The SameSite attribute is an effective counter measure to cross-site request forgery, cross-site script inclusion, and timing attacks.

Solution

Ensure that the SameSite attribute is set to either 'lax' or ideally 'strict' for all cookies.
