I am working on securing user sessions and want to understand how cookie attributes can help prevent session hijacking. My questions are:
- What are the key attributes (HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite, Domain) and their roles in security?
- How to configure these attributes correctly in different web servers (Apache, Nginx) and programming languages (PHP, JavaScript)?
- What are the best practices for preventing session fixation and cross-site attacks using cookies?
A clear explanation with examples of secure cookie configurations would be useful.
