[issue19670] SimpleCookie Generates Non-RFC6265-Compliant Cookies

[Martin Panter]

Martin Panter <vadmium+py at gmail.com> added the comment:

I think the solution here is to document what “SimpleCookie.value_encode” really does: RFC 2109 quoted-string escaping. If you want to a generate RFC-6265-compliant Set-Cookie string, do not include non-compliant characters in the cookie value, and consider using BaseCookie rather than SimpleCookie, especially if your “morsel” values are enclosed in double quotes.
