Hacking Web Applications Using Cookie Poisoning 

 

Amit Klein (amit.klein@sanctuminc.com) is security group manager for Sanctum, Inc.  



 

Summary 

 

Cookie poisoning is a known technique mainly for achieving impersonation and breach of 



privacy through manipulation of session cookies, which maintain the identity of the client. By 

forging these cookies, an attacker can impersonate a valid client, and thus gain information and 

perform actions on behalf of the victim. The ability to forge such session cookies (or more 

generally, session tokens) stems from the fact that the tokens are not generated in a secure way. 

 

In this paper, we explain why session management (and session management security) is a 



complex task (which is why it is usually left for commercial products). We describe how the 

tokens are generated for two commercial application engines. We then analyze the strength of 

each mechanism, explain its weakness, and demonstrate how such weakness can be exploited to 

execute an impersonation/privacy breach attack. We discuss the feasibility of the attack. Finally, 

we recommend an approach to session management which separates the security from the 

functionality – the latter is carried out by application engines, while the former should be 

provided by a dedicated application security product.
