Cookie expiry must be a positive integer when adding cookie with expiry Maximum java date Aug 17, 292278994 12:42:55 PM

I am trying to add the following cookie with expiry date as Maximum java date Aug 17, 292278994 12:42:55 PM generated from a url to firefox web driver. On doing this I get "Cookie expiry must be a positive integer" error. When year of the expiry date is modified, the cookie doesn't seem to work.

Cookie:

 {
    {
          "name": "..dbcjjd",
          "value": "1.2.3.4",
          "path": "/",
          "domain": "abc.com",
          "expiry": "Aug 17, 292278994 12:42:55 PM",
          "isSecure": true,
          "isHttpOnly": false
     },
    {
          "name": "..dbcjjd",
          "value": "1.2.3.4",
          "path": "/",
          "domain": "abc.com",
          "expiry": "Jun 22, 2018 4:11:20 PM",
          "isSecure": true,
          "isHttpOnly": false
     }

    }

    Adding Cookie to driver:

     for(Cookie ck : cookieList)                            
    {
         Cookie newCookie = new Cookie(ck.getName(),ck.getValue(),domain, 
         ck.getPath(), ck.getExpiry(), ck.isSecure());                                                                  
         webDriver.manage().addCookie(newCookie);
    }

This was experienced in latest firefox 59 version. The same url in lower firefox version provided null expiry.

According to RFC 7231 a properly formatted date has a year field that consists of 4 digits (see below). It appears that the year you provided causes integer overflow resulting in a negative value for the timestamp.

 Preferred format:

   IMF-fixdate  = day-name "," SP date1 SP time-of-day SP GMT
   ; fixed length/zone/capitalization subset of the format
   ; see Section 3.3 of [RFC5322]

   day-name     = %x4D.6F.6E ; "Mon", case-sensitive
                / %x54.75.65 ; "Tue", case-sensitive
                / %x57.65.64 ; "Wed", case-sensitive
                / %x54.68.75 ; "Thu", case-sensitive
                / %x46.72.69 ; "Fri", case-sensitive
                / %x53.61.74 ; "Sat", case-sensitive
                / %x53.75.6E ; "Sun", case-sensitive

   date1        = day SP month SP year
                ; e.g., 02 Jun 1982

   day          = 2DIGIT
   month        = %x4A.61.6E ; "Jan", case-sensitive
                / %x46.65.62 ; "Feb", case-sensitive
                / %x4D.61.72 ; "Mar", case-sensitive
                / %x41.70.72 ; "Apr", case-sensitive
                / %x4D.61.79 ; "May", case-sensitive
                / %x4A.75.6E ; "Jun", case-sensitive
                / %x4A.75.6C ; "Jul", case-sensitive
                / %x41.75.67 ; "Aug", case-sensitive
                / %x53.65.70 ; "Sep", case-sensitive
                / %x4F.63.74 ; "Oct", case-sensitive
                / %x4E.6F.76 ; "Nov", case-sensitive
                / %x44.65.63 ; "Dec", case-sensitive
   year         = 4DIGIT

   GMT          = %x47.4D.54 ; "GMT", case-sensitive

   time-of-day  = hour ":" minute ":" second
                ; 00:00:00 - 23:59:60 (leap second)

   hour         = 2DIGIT
   minute       = 2DIGIT
   second       = 2DIGIT

 Obsolete formats:
