Top Security Bugs

Session Cookie Policies

• Lucas filed bug 530594 to propose that we forcibly expire session cookies after 7 days; we need feedback from people here and from web developers
• also wondering if we should have an explicit option to always expire session cookies whenever the browser quits, even if the user chooses to save tabs or if there is a restart for add-on or application install/update.
• Related bugs:
  • bug 529899 to have session restore not save session cookies if the user has set Firefox to expire all cookies on shutdown
  • bug 529644 is about rewording the "Save and Quit" dialog to explain that session cookies will be preserved

Tree Management
