Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH widget-toolkit/http-server/apiclient 0/4] Set SameSite=Strict on Auth Cookies
Date: Wed, 15 Mar 2023 17:26:26 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230315162630.289768-1-m.carrara@proxmox.com> (raw)
This series sets the `SameSite` attribute of authentication cookies
to `Strict` as per RFC 6265[1]. This prevents browsers from nagging;
for example, FireFox 102.8.0esr would complain in the following manner:
> Cookie “PVEAuthCookie” does not have a proper “SameSite” attribute
> value. Soon, cookies without the “SameSite” attribute or with an
> invalid value will be treated as “Lax”. This means that the cookie
> will no longer be sent in third-party contexts. If your application
> depends on this cookie being available in such contexts, please add
> the “SameSite=None“ attribute to it. To know more about the
> “SameSite“ attribute, read https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie/SameSite
Since setting `SameSite` to `Strict` enforces that the cookie be only
sent in a first-party context - so, only to the web UI and no other
site - it seemed like the best thing to choose. I'm not aware of the
cookie being used in any other contexts; if that's the case, I'll
gladly provide a v2.
The attribute is set wherever it makes sense; the only repo in which
it's not set would be 'pve-client', as that one's apparently not being
used at all (it wouldn't even build). Please let me know if I have
missed any spots.
