Cookie Security: HTTPOnly not Set

The program creates a cookie, but fails to set the HttpOnly flag to true.

All major browsers support the HttpOnly cookie property that prevents client-side scripts from accessing the cookie. Cross-site scripting attacks often access cookies in an attempt to steal session identifiers or authentication tokens. Without HttpOnly enabled, attackers have easier access to user cookies.
Example 1: The following code creates a cookie without setting the HttpOnly property.

    HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie("emailCookie", email);
    Response.AppendCookie(cookie);
