Cookiejar

The Cookiejar App replaces the browser’s native cookie handling with a Webfuse-managed cookiejar. Instead of relying on the browser’s built-in cookiejar, Webfuse implements two complementary layers:

• Server-side cookiejar - Handles both HTTPOnly cookies and JS-accessible cookies. HTTPOnly cookies are stored entirely on the server and never delivered to the browser, keeping them out of reach of client-side scripts. JS cookies are also persisted server-side to survive browser restarts and bypass per-domain browser storage limits.
• Client-side cookiejar - Emulates browser-native cookie behaviour inside the Webfuse sandbox, so existing JavaScript code interacts with cookies exactly as it would with a native browser cookiejar.

Key benefits:

• Larger storage capacity - Server-side storage bypasses browser per-domain cookie size limits.
• Session persistence - Login state and preferences are preserved across browsing activities without cookies being evicted by the browser.
• Enhanced security - HTTPOnly cookies are never exposed to the browser or JavaScript.

Note

Before enabling the Cookiejar App, clear your browser’s existing cookies to avoid conflicts between locally stored cookies and the server-side cookiejar. You can do this immediately after installing and enabling the App.
