Cookie dan sesi for Backbone.js
high5 checks
Session cookies are the keys to an account. Missing attributes turn a single XSS bug into full account takeover.
What Backbone.js must have
- Secure attribute on every cookie
- HttpOnly on session cookies
- SameSite=Lax or Strict on session cookies
- No session identifier in URLs or localStorage
- Session rotation after login and logout invalidation
How to fix it
- 1Set cookie attributes at the framework level so every cookie inherits them
- 2Move tokens out of localStorage to HttpOnly cookies
Backbone.js context
Minimal MVC library for older single-page applications.
Backbone renders raw templates, so escaping is the developer's job. Audit any .html() call on user data.
