Re: Use __Host- prefix cookie names to ensure cookies come from the host ( https://shibboleth.atlassian.net/browse/IDP-1872?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiZjlmYzAwMWZhYzg1NGNhOTgwMTQ3MzA5MTU5YjU2OTQiLCJwIjoiaiJ9 )

I don’t really understand what you’re asking for here, I’m going to need a clearer explanation. The cookies are scoped however you want them to be generally speaking. If domain isn’t set, they are host only. The path is also configurable.

It may be that this is a bug in the area of this particular cookie (we didn’t write any of that code, SWITCH did) so it may need some attention, but in general the properties are configurable. The names are not, and that’s not really a goal.

It might be best to maybe focus on any other cookie that isn’t this one. If there’s no issue there, than perhaps the bug is “this one isn’t honoring the settings”?
