Description

A flaw was found in Tornado. An attacker can bypass security validation in the set_cookie function by using capitalized or legacy keyword arguments. This allows the attacker to inject arbitrary cookie attributes, such as Domain or SameSite, and modify cookie security settings. The consequence is the potential to manipulate cookie behavior, which could lead to unintended security impacts.
