    Description

      Assumptions from https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265
      When a host response contains multiple headers with the same key, each with different values, the HttpProducer overwrites the value, effectively last-in-wins, extracted problem code below

      protected void populateResponse(Exchange exchange, HttpRequestBase httpRequest, HttpResponse httpResponse,
      Message in, HeaderFilterStrategy strategy, int responseCode) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
        ...
        // propagate HTTP response headers
        Header[] headers = httpResponse.getAllHeaders();
        Map<String, List<String>> m = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();
        for (Header header : headers) {
          String name = header.getName();
          String value = header.getValue();
          m.put(name, Collections.singletonList(value)); //<--- This is the problem
          if (name.toLowerCase().equals("content-type")) {
            name = Exchange.CONTENT_TYPE;
            exchange.setProperty(Exchange.CHARSET_NAME, IOHelper.getCharsetNameFromContentType(value));
          }
          // use http helper to extract parameter value as it may contain multiple values
          Object extracted = HttpHelper.extractHttpParameterValue(value);
          if (strategy != null && !strategy.applyFilterToExternalHeaders(name, extracted, exchange)) {
           HttpHelper.appendHeader(answer.getHeaders(), name, extracted);
          }
        }
        // handle cookies
        if (getEndpoint().getCookieHandler() != null) {
        //if host responded with multiple Set-Cookie headers, only last cookie is presented
        getEndpoint().getCookieHandler().storeCookies(exchange, httpRequest.getURI(), m);
        }
      ...
      

      A simple fix ->

      ...
      for (Header header : headers) {
        String name = header.getName();
        String value = header.getValue();
        List<String> values = m.computeIfAbsent(name, k -> new ArrayList<>()).add(value);
      ...
      

      On the flip side, when the client responds, the cookies pulled from the handler are not formatted correctly, broken code snippet from HttpProducer.process()

          if (getEndpoint().getCookieHandler() != null) {
                  Map<String, List<String>> cookieHeaders = getEndpoint().getCookieHandler().loadCookies(exchange, httpRequest.getURI());
                  for (Map.Entry<String, List<String>> entry : cookieHeaders.entrySet()) {
                      String key = entry.getKey();
                      if (entry.getValue().size() > 0) {
                          // use the default toString of a ArrayList to create in the form [xxx, yyy]
                          // if multi valued, for a single value, then just output the value as is
                          String s = entry.getValue().size() > 1 ? entry.getValue().toString() : entry.getValue().get(0);//<--- This is a problem
                          httpRequest.addHeader(key, s);
                      }
                  }
              }
      

      This can be fixed simply

          if (getEndpoint().getCookieHandler() != null) {
                  Map<String, List<String>> cookieHeaders = getEndpoint().getCookieHandler().loadCookies(exchange, httpRequest.getURI());
                  for (Map.Entry<String, List<String>> entry : cookieHeaders.entrySet()) {
                      String key = entry.getKey();
                      if (entry.getValue().size() > 0) {
                          httpRequest.addHeader(key, entry.getValue().stream().collect(Collectors.joining(";"))); //semi-colon, not comma...
                      }
                  }
              }
      

      Additionally, the CookieHandler.loadCookies method is not properly constructing the Cookie values, as it calls HttpCookie.toString - which represents the host's Set-Cookie value, not the client's Cookie value
