Safari/iOS cookies.binarycookies reader

Safari browser and iOS applications store the persistent cookies in Cookies.binarycookies file. Currently there is no tool available to read the cookies from this file. So I wrote a python script (BinaryCookieReader.py), to extract the cookies from Cookies.binarycookies files.

Cookies.binarycookies file structure and BinaryCookieReader is available at -

Thanks for the script and documentation of the format - always good to see people contributing to the community ). It's a typically weird Apple format, what with the size-map and the switch in endianess part way through the file (which I've never been able to think of a rationalisation for).

However there is a tool available which parses these files and other cookie formats Dunk (http//www.cclgroupltd.com/Buy-Software/dunk-web-cookie-analysis-tool.html). It does some other neat stuff with parsing the contents of known cookie formats. There is an update due shortly which adds more more formats and a few new features.
