    <title>HTTP State Management Mechanism</title>
    <documentation source="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-rfc6265bis">This document defines the HTTP Cookie and Set-Cookie header fields. These header fields can be used by HTTP servers to store state (called cookies) at HTTP user agents, letting the servers maintain a stateful session over the mostly stateless HTTP protocol. Although cookies have many historical infelicities that degrade their security and privacy, the Cookie and Set-Cookie header fields are widely used on the Internet. This document obsoletes RFC 2965.</documentation>
