Cookies no longer work between http and https

Reported by pap...@paphussolutions.com, Mar 6 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version       : 56.0.2924.87
OS Version: 10.0
URLs (if applicable) :
Other browsers tested:
  Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
     Safari 5: OK
  Firefox 4.x: OK
     IE 7/8/9: OK
   Chrome before "insecure login" update: OK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. connect to website that supports http and https (http://www.botlibre.com) login
2. connect as https (https://www.botlibre.com) logout/login
3. connect as http (http://www.botlibre.com), JSESSIONID cookie no longer allowed, any page that uses session cookie fails (i.e. embed avatar, chat)


What is the expected result?
Cookies should work when you switch between http and https like they used to, and like they do on every other browsers.

What happens instead of that?
Cookies do not work.


Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

paphus:  Is there ever a JSESSIONID cookie being set with the secure cookie attribute?  We no longer allow HTTP requests to overwrite secure cookies with insecure ones.
So you intentionally broke millions of websites? and no longer support websites with http and https?

@ mmenke: Request you to please address as per comment#6.

Thanks.!
ranjitkan@: Neither Matt's question in c#5 nor krasjshree@'s question in c#2 has been answered yet by the OP; as far as I'm concerned, this bug is still waiting on feedback from that poster.  Please update this bug if you disagree and why you disagree.  (Note that the network bug triage rotation means that it's unlikely that Matt would be the one to respond to this request in any case; we tradeoff responsibility every two days.)

In response to c#6: I think Chrome has worked this way for years; I do not believe that the change Matt refers to in c#5 could be responsible for any recent breakage.  It's possible that something subtle has happened recently that means I'm wrong.  If you keep working with us, we may be able to figure out what root cause for this bug is; without your help, that's unlikely.

HTTP requests not being able to overwrite secure cookies is actually a fairly recent change (on the order of months old, not years).  See  https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-cookie-alone.  The associated bug is issue 568188.  Intent to implement and ship can be found at https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/blink-dev/g_igIzSue40.

It's still not clear to me that this is the issue the OP is running into, due to lack of response to comment #2.
Lack of response to comment #5, rather.

It's also my understanding that FireFox has now shipped this as of FireFox 52, which was released last month, so going to go ahead and close this.
