Comment (by isaumya):

 Hi @SergeyBiryukov,
 Thanks a lot for your reply. As you said mentioned above I am glad to know
 that `SameSite` is planned for upcoming future release. And I am glad to
 know that `Secure` is being added to most cookies. But `HttpOnly` is still
 missing on many cookies. For example `wordpress_test_cookie`, `wp-
 settings-2`, `wp-settings-time-2` etc. don't have `HttpOnly` set.

 So, why `HttpOnly` is missing for them?
