    Summary: http.cookiejar: Incorrect validation of path

    Details: Cookies of ``example.com`` with ``path=/any`` were sent to ``example.com/anybad/`` while using a cookiejar with `http.cookiejar.DefaultCookiePolicy` policy. The code did not check for the first non-matching character in prefix match to be a slash.
