Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for node-cookies.

CVE-2026-88038[0]:
| cookies is a Node.js library for reading and writing HTTP cookies,
| used by Koa via ctx.cookies. In versions before 0.9.2 the library
| validates the cookie name and value against character sets that
| reject the semicolon separator, but the domain and path options are
| checked only against a permissive RFC 7230 field-content matcher
| that allows semicolons, and both are written into the Set-Cookie
| header unescaped. An application that passes untrusted or request-
| derived data into the domain or path option can therefore inject
| additional cookie attributes, overriding SameSite, Secure, HttpOnly,
| or Domain on the cookies the application issues. This is a Set-
| Cookie attribute injection issue (CWE-74). The issue is fixed in
| cookies 0.9.2, which validates domain and path against RFC 6265
| character sets. As a workaround, keep domain and path application-
| set rather than derived from untrusted input.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities &amp; Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
