Description Josh Bressers 2009-01-29 20:49:19 UTC 
Security researcher Wladimir Palant reported that cookies marked HTTPOnly
were readable by JavaScript via the XMLHttpRequest.getResponseHeader API.
This vulnerability bypasses the security mechanism provided by the HTTPOnly
flag which intends to restrict JavaScript access to document.cookie.
