As the subject says, I want to update chrome cookies without opening the browser, by using some script. This is done to do autologin into certain websites as soon as the user logins to the workstations. Can anyone help me in this regard.
I have script to retrieve the cookies from server, so this part of problem is solved.
Thanks and Best Regards,

I have a web application and we are calling a third party to process some data. Once it's done, the third party will redirect back to my application (It's a post redirection). To keep the session, we are using cookies. After the google chrome update, where the default values for samesite=Lax, I've updated our cookies to pass as samesite=None; Secure to overcome this issue. Now after google chrome version 91, this implementation is not working and I'm getting a session expiry issue. Can somebody help to fix this issue for google chrome version 91 and after? I'm using java
The best that we have been able to come up with is a client side meta refresh. When the third party posts back to our application, we have a page filter that will send it to a "refreshMeta" page similar to https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/H76.html. This has to happen without calling .getSession() anywhere because that will cause a new session to be created. This causes the page to refresh in the browser and send all original cookies back to the server because its coming from the same domain and a new session wasnt created.
I will say this worked for a while but it looks like there was change in Tomcat that's preventing this approach from working like it did on earlier versions, which is why I'm back looking for another solution.
I notice that certain cookies saved in my chrome browser are getting deleted automatically without any manual intervention. I have the some extensions installed in chrome. I want to know if anybody has faced the same issue. Do certain extension delete cookies on a regular basis? Any information would be helpful
I think I know the answer! Google chrome has a cap on the number of cookies it allowed per domain . Once the total number of cookies in that domain exceeds that count, it deletes cookies! Verified!
It must be due to some extension that you have installed. Extensions can have access to clear the cookies.
So, If you have not deleted the cookies manually, then the other extensions installed, are the responsible for clearing the cookies.
I have also observed something similar. After updating to Chrome 67 stable about two weeks ago some cookies disappeared. No matter if I set them again, after restarting chrome they are not there. Like the blocking cookie of web statistics/hit counter.
I don't know details, but looks like it may be related to http/https issue, I see in the site info that for some of the http pages background data is not synced in Chrome.
Or, if the cookie has no expiration time.
They're still being deleted without my consent and it's not due to extensions.
I've noticed that Google keeps visiting some of my url:s each time i boot up Google Chrome, does anyone know why this might be?
This wouldn't be much of a problem, except that it keeps hitting an login-url for a system I've built. And each time there's an unknown login-call I receive a text message... so, it's kind of annoying.
The IP range i keep receiving this visits from is 66.102.9.*.
Sure, I could block this ip-range. But first I'd like to know why I keep receiving this visits. Does anyone have any ideas?
Perhaps it is your Chrome's starting page and you could change it in the settings.
That's where I'd start, unless you have already checked that.
If that's not it, try the Google Chrome forums
When you use Google Chrome, it sends GET requests to Google's servers for the bowser's update checks and for the Chrome apps updates.
Chrome sends requests to multiple URLs when it’s checking for and downloading updates. The order of requests is determined dynamically at runtime. Both HTTP and HTTPS protocols might be tried. The following URL list of hostnames and paths can change at any time without notice:
www.google.com/dl/*
*.gvt1.com
tools.google.com/service/update2
dl.google.com/*
google.com/dl/*
clients2.google.com
update.googleapis.com/service/update2
Whenever I try to visit log in to PayPal on Google Chrome (my current version is 35.0.1916.114 which is the most up to date at the time of writing this), I get a 500 Internal Server Error. Here's the exact one:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster#paypal.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
I'm able to visit the homepage fine and I can log in on all other browsers but this has been an issue for some time now (I just haven't gotten around to looking into it). At the moment, I open Firefox just to use PayPal but I used Chrome for everything else so I'm trying to solve it.
Any ideas on why this would be happening? I've seen other questions on the web similar but they are mainly due to people 'buying' through PayPal which isn't a problem for me. I can purchase items on the 'purchase' screens that you get redirected to from a site.
Thanks for your help!
I see this from time to time on a couple of very specific web sites (e.g., Slashdot). All other sites works fine when this happens (and the site works fine in other browsers, including Web Kit based ones). The embarrassingly simple solution is to restart the browser (I try to avoid it since I often have 50+ tabs open). If guess the problem might be session cookies (that would explain why a restart works). As a consequence of this guess, clearing all permanent cookies for PayPal and related sites might be worth considering.
For me, I do like this at the 500 error page
Click on the Secure to the left side of the address bar
Select Site settings
Select Reset site settings at the bottom of the page
Reload the page
in some cases but not all. There appears to be a corrupt session via the cookie or data stored for a specific browser in the java files. Try the following;
1. Download CCleaner (close chrome)
Remove and clean registry files
Remove tmp and cached for CHROME as well as cookies
Clear index.dat file
4. Control Panel / Java-open / clear internet java cached files
5. Make sure you're not using a proxy IP for the web
6. Restart computer
7. Try again
Now that Google separated cookies from permissions I had to delete my cookies separately to get it to work.
Click on the Secure to the left side of the address bar
Select Cookies
Select the wordpress cookies and Remove each one
Reload page
I'm implementing a mutual authentication for my client in order to solve not having to continually whitelist some of the agencies with a dynamic ip. The process works fine in all browsers that I've tried in the Windows environment (Windows 7).
The problem is that there is a popup for every time that the user goes to the site. On most browsers, this is a one time occurrence, when you first go to the site for the day. On Google Chrome, however, the popup occurs on what appears to be every POST/GET request. I found how to disable the popup for IE and FF with this link: http://docs.threerings.org.uk/wiki/Certificates_without_prompting, but there is still the problem with Chrome.
I've tried to install the certificate into the Trusted Root Certification Authorities, but I get an error message, "The import failed because the store was read-only, the store was full, or the store did not open correctly.".
If anyone has an idea on what I can do to get around the pop-up for Chrome, it would be greatly appreciated.
This is what you're looking for:

I could tell you how to do it exactly, but my honest opinion is that this is something you have to work out yourself. You need to know what is going on because you are more than likely to run into bugs (not bugs per-se but some undesired or unwanted results).
I have to admit that Google Chrome and Chromium are great browsers, but when it comes to client certificates, they have a lot of improvements to be made.
Just some extra info on this that may help people.
The first part references the CFBundleIdentifier which you can find in the Contents folder then info.plist. Click you Application and then show package contents then you should see it.
So I had to do this for Chromium for Tizen debugging below worked obviously use your CN name.
defaults write org.chromium.Chromium AutoSelectCertificateForUrls -array-add -string '{"pattern":"*","filter":{"ISSUER":{"CN":"Entrust Certification Authority"}}}'
