> The client-side of Guacamole has stored the authentication token for Guacamole's REST services within a cookie called {{GUAC_AUTH}} since roughly 0.9.4, part of the general refactor that occurred migrating from traditional Java servlets to an AngularJS single-page app. Though the cookie is only actually used client-side, it is still a cookie and is thus sent over the network automatically by the browser to the Guacamole server, where it is ultimately received and completely ignored.
> This unnecessary use of cookies should be removed and replaced with something more in line with the way the auth token is actually used, such as {{localStorage}}.
