+#### Unicode whitespace cookie-name smuggling (prefix forgery)
+
+Abuse discrepancies between browser and server parsing by prepending a Unicode whitespace code point to the cookie name. The browser won’t consider the name to literally start with `__Host-`/`__Secure-`, so it allows setting from a subdomain. If the backend trims/normalizes leading Unicode whitespace on cookie keys, it will see the protected name and may overwrite the high-privilege cookie.
+
+- PoC from a subdomain that can set parent-domain cookies:
+
+```js
+document.cookie = `${String.fromCodePoint(0x2000)}__Host-name=injected; Domain=.example.com; Path=/;`;
+```
+
+- Typical backend behavior that enables the issue:
+  - Frameworks that trim/normalize cookie keys. In Django, Python’s `str.strip()` removes a wide range of Unicode whitespace code points, causing the name to normalize to `__Host-name`.
+  - Commonly trimmed code points include: U+0085 (NEL, 133), U+00A0 (NBSP, 160), U+1680 (5760), U+2000–U+200A (8192–8202), U+2028 (8232), U+2029 (8233), U+202F (8239), U+205F (8287), U+3000 (12288).
+  - Many frameworks resolve duplicate cookie names as “last wins”, so the attacker-controlled normalized cookie value overwrites the legitimate one.
+
+- Browser differences matter:
+  - Safari blocks multibyte Unicode whitespace in cookie names (e.g., rejects U+2000) but still permits single-byte U+0085 and U+00A0, which many backends trim. Cross-test across browsers.
+
+- Impact: Enables overwriting of `__Host-`/`__Secure-` cookies from less-trusted contexts (subdomains), which can lead to XSS (if reflected), CSRF token override, and session fixation.
+
+- On-the-wire vs server view example (U+2000 present in name):
+
+```
+Cookie: __Host-name=Real;  __Host-name=<img src=x onerror=alert(1)>;
+```
+
+Many backends split/parse and then trim, resulting in the normalized `__Host-name` taking the attacker’s value.
+
+#### Legacy `$Version=1` cookie splitting on Java backends (prefix bypass)
+
+Some Java stacks (e.g., Tomcat/Jetty-style) still enable legacy RFC 2109/2965 parsing when the `Cookie` header starts with `$Version=1`. This can cause the server to reinterpret a single cookie string as multiple logical cookies and accept a forged `__Host-` entry that was originally set from a subdomain or even over insecure origin.
+
+- PoC forcing legacy parsing:
+
+```js
+document.cookie = `$Version=1,__Host-name=injected; Path=/somethingreallylong/; Domain=.example.com;`;
+```
+
+- Why it works:
+  - Client-side prefix checks apply during set, but server-side legacy parsing later splits and normalizes the header, bypassing the intent of `__Host-`/`__Secure-` prefix guarantees.
+
+- Where to try: Tomcat, Jetty, Undertow, or frameworks that still honor RFC 2109/2965 attributes. Combine with duplicate-name overwrite semantics.
+
+#### Duplicate-name last-wins overwrite primitive
+
+When two cookies normalize to the same name, many backends (including Django) use the last occurrence. After smuggling/legacy-splitting produces two `__Host-*` names, the attacker-controlled one will typically win.
+
+#### Detection and tooling
+
+Use Burp Suite to probe for these conditions:
+
+- Try multiple leading Unicode whitespace code points: U+2000, U+0085, U+00A0 and observe whether the backend trims and treats the name as prefixed.
+- Send `$Version=1` first in the Cookie header and check if the backend performs legacy splitting/normalization.
+- Observe duplicate-name resolution (first vs last wins) by injecting two cookies that normalize to the same name.
+- Burp Custom Action to automate this: [CookiePrefixBypass.bambda](https://github.com/PortSwigger/bambdas/blob/main/CustomAction/CookiePrefixBypass.bambda)
+
+> Tip: These techniques exploit RFC 6265’s octet-vs-string gap: browsers send bytes; servers decode and may normalize/trim. Mismatches in decoding and normalization are the core of the bypass.
