SessionLength cookie triggers warnings about SameSite attribute
Closed, DeclinedPublicBUG REPORT

Description

I noticed in my browser console that I am receiving warnings about cookies associated with the SessionLength analytics. This is on Mozilla Firefox version 91.0 while I'm signed into my WMF account on English Wikipedia. Not sure how long I'll be in the group that's in sessionlength tracking but I'm happy to do any other diagnostics that would be helpful.

Examples:

Cookie “enwikiwmE-sessionTickLastTickTime” will be soon rejected because it has the “SameSite” attribute set to “None” or an invalid value, without the “secure” attribute. To know more about the “SameSite“ attribute, read https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie/SameSite inject.js:1550:27

Cookie “enwikiwmE-sessionTickTickCount” will be soon rejected because it has the “SameSite” attribute set to “None” or an invalid value, without the “secure” attribute. To know more about the “SameSite“ attribute, read https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie/SameSite inject.js:1550:27

Cookie “enwikiel-sessionId” will be soon rejected because it has the “SameSite” attribute set to “None” or an invalid value, without the “secure” attribute. To know more about the “SameSite“ attribute, read https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie/SameSite inject.js:1550:27

Per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:SameSite_cookies#Browser_warnings it looks like these warnings can be ignored, as we have no need to send the cookies in question in any cross-domain AJAX requests.

In light of this, closing this task for now.

No longer relevant given that it can be ignored.
