SameSite cookie

Hello,

I have noticed that Splunk dashboard is working in Firefox but is not working in Chrome or Edge (maybe more browsers).
I use an iframe to load Splunk in my Wordpress website. This is not a problem since i tried a website that does use the cookie samesite='None'.
To my understanding Chrome did an update where is does not allow third party (Splunk) apps that does not use the samesite cookie.

Is this a known problem? is there a workaround?

Articles i found interesting for understanding this problem:
https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/samesite-examples/blob/master/php.md

https://blog.heroku.com/chrome-changes-samesite-cookie

After disabling the 'samesite by default' Splunk works.

Previously i got an answer that this is a wordpress bug, if so can someone explain to me how this is a wordpress bug. 

Thanks

Hi, 

To be honest, i don't know exactly what the problem was or how i solved it, i would love to help but i can't find it in the code.

I think it had something to do with the code where the splunk 'code' comes from.

In my case i had to add something to the script on the other site before i was able to load it into the main site.
By adding this to the script i was able to clear the samesite error.

I know this is not the answer you are looking for but i can only push you in that direction to look for the right answer.
