FIX: Cookie names pass through host address translation when the cookie domain attribute is the same domain as the portal public host name

View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You have a server that is running Microsoft Forefront Unified Access Gateway (UAG) 2010 Service Pack 1 (SP1) Update 1.
  • You publish a web application through UAG 2010 by using the Other Web Application (portal host name) template.
  • When you browse to this web application, it sets a domain cookie. The domain that is specified for this cookie is the same as the domain of the UAG portal public host name, as in the following example:
    • UAG portal public host name: portal.contoso.com
    • Cookie domain, in the domain attribute of the Set-Cookie header: domain=.contoso.com
In this scenario, when UAG forwards the HTTP response of the back-end web server to the client, UAG changes the name of cookie by using host address translation (HAT).
