Mozilla Firefox before 4 cannot properly restrict modifications to cookies
established in HTTPS sessions, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to
overwrite or delete arbitrary cookies via a Set-Cookie header in an HTTP
response, related to lack of the HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)
includeSubDomains feature, aka a “cookie forcing” issue.
