vinnu, i guess u mis-understood this. This was a concept. I know, as u mentioned, XSS now a days nobody uses for cookie stealing/session hijacking things. But this concept was related to security assignment not some underground hacking. We can not simply infect the admin with Malware2.0 just to make our point. But when the situation like this arises in assignments, we demonstrated the practical implementation of the concept which can be carried out for assignments.
Hope you get it this time.

This is required to work CORS and requirement for Same Origin Policy. If the protocol/domain/port mismatches, SOP will prevent the communication.
The "httpOnly" cookies will have no meaning in this case as with XSS in main site will only have access to cookies of main site, not the Admin panel one. I came to know this while testing it on setup. I'll strike it out.
Now checking you post about "httpOnly" cookies and will try to answer it.
