Potential fix for https://github.com/microsoft/AcademicContent/security/code-scanning/7
To fix the problem, the
set_cookiecall on line 41 should explicitly set thesecure,httponly, andsamesiteattributes to secure values. Specifically, setsecure=True(so the cookie is only sent over HTTPS),httponly=True(so the cookie is not accessible to JavaScript), andsamesite='Lax'(so the cookie is not sent with most cross-site requests, mitigating CSRF). This change should be made directly in theresp.set_cookiecall in thehellofunction inarchive/Events and Hacks/Tech Talks/ContainerDemo/example-voting-app/vote/app.py. No new imports or additional code are required.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
