Where are these attributes enforced, on the client? If you insert these attributes via the application cookie properties but not the ASM cookies, will it (client?) still enforce them? Do the ASM cookie attribute settings override the application cookie settings? Could I, in fact, make the case and prove to the vuln scan team (internal, by the way) that the attributes are set if I only enable them on the application cookie? I wish F5 had some kind of flow diagram that showed how the ASM and application cookies worked together. I've read the individual KB articles on the two cookie types, but I can't get my head around the whole flow. I wonder if anyone has experimented with these settings and have some fiddler traces.
