  9. CSRF protection bypass on a site with Google Analytics
    
  10. ======================================================
    
  11. 
    
  12. An interaction between Google Analytics and Django's cookie parsing could allow
    
  13. an attacker to set arbitrary cookies leading to a bypass of CSRF protection.
    
  14. 
    
  15. The parser for ``request.COOKIES`` is simplified to better match the behavior
    
  16. of browsers and to mitigate this attack. ``request.COOKIES`` may now contain
    
  17. cookies that are invalid according to :rfc:`6265` but are possible to set via
    
  18. ``document.cookie``.
