Looking at the sync logs from a few different sync clients, it seems that we shouldn't be sending the cookie value in all requests to the sync servers. I did talk with mconnor about this and suggested this: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Creating_Sandboxed_HTTP_Connections

Connor, is this still an issue and how should we be prioritizing it?
Almost certainly still an issue. It's not a killer thing, but we really should fix it sooner rather than later. I suspect our network wrapper makes this relatively easy to fix. cc-ing gps for opinion.

Who set the cookies in question? It seems like the sync server shouldn't set them in the first place if you don't want to send them?
They're domain cookies from visiting mozilla.com or other sites that set domain cookies.

I'm not sure how domain cookies work for localhost, but it should be safe to make this a host cookie and just remove the domain=original.com; part. @@ -143,6 +143,8 @@ AsyncResource.prototype = { You don't have a test for AsyncResource.

(I'm unclear on what RESTRequest vs AsyncResource is used for, but I trust gps will understand that part of the patch)

Its a hack to get m-c with clang to compile properly. :)

Adjusting the default load flags could have undesired consequences. It is arguably silly that we set these flags by default.

While I followed directions, I'm not sure if the --no-prefix really formatted the patch in a manner that is acceptable for hg. I think the internet might be misleading me there.

Ally: bsmith mentioned that there might be some interaction (read: it doesn't work) between nsIRequest.LOAD_ANONYMOUS and authenticating proxies. Worth investigating?
btw why is this a mozilla corporation bug as opposed to a security bug?
