The example below shows a simple implementation of the "sticky cookie" +functionality included in the interactive mitmproxy program. Traffic is +monitored for ``Cookie`` and ``Set-Cookie`` headers, and requests are rewritten +to include a previously seen cookie if they don't already have one. In effect, +this lets you log in to a site using your browser, and then make subsequent +requests using a tool like curl, which will then seem to be part of the +authenticated session. + + +.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/stickycookies + :caption: examples/stickycookies + :language: python |
