Since http is a stateless protocol, meaning each transaction is distinct and there is no memory from one to the next, tracking a browser through a site can be difficult at best. A user could visit a site, leave, and come back a day or a minute later, possibly from a different IP address. The site maintainer previously had no way of knowing if this was the same browser or not. CGI and Perl > Scripts and Programs > Development Tools > Cookies Oct 10, 2006

While reading the Netscape Cookie Specification on May 6th, 1998 it occured to me that there was a vulnerabilty in their specification. By exploiting the fact that a domain with a trailing dot ('.') character is the same domain as the fully qualified domain name, and thinking recursively about their 'two dot' and 'three dot' domain sharing rules, I asked myself, what if they implemented simply dot counting without checking that there are in fact names in between the dots? In other words, would a domain name with multiple trailing dot characters be able to evade the 'two dot/three dot' limits on who they can share cookies with?
