Attempting to address publicsuffix/list#2241
For experimental purpose, I have just set up a cookie tester at https://secaas.hk (
secaas.hk
is currently listed in the PSL) to test cookie behavior in Firefox and Chromium,Observations:
suffix.tld
)subdomain1.suffix.tld
andsubdomain2.suffix.tld
cannot set cookies on each other.subdomain1.suffix.tld
can set cookies onsub.subdomain1.suffix.tld
.subdomain1.suffix.tld
andsuffix.tld
cannot set cookies on each other.The documentation's current wording suggests that the PSL prevents cookie-setting entirely on public suffixes, when in reality it only prevents cookie sharing/inheritance between separate registrable domains under that public suffix. This is an important distinction that the documentation fails to make clear. A more accurate description would explain that the PSL helps prevent cookies set on one domain from being accessible to other domains under the same public suffix.
