[HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET] => utf-8, iso-8859-1, utf-16, *;q=0.7
[HTTP_COOKIE] => , FRONTEND=vkq1nq69lhequ5v1v7kor2sj71

Answer 1

To me the application sets multiple cookies with the same name, one of it with an empty key and an empty value.

The browser receive the empty cookie and send it back the next request, thus having ", ..." instead of "key=value, ...".

I'd suggest you to inspect your application for wrong setcookie() and header('Cookie:') functions.
