Authentication

On login, wordpress uses the wordpress_[hash] cookie to store your authentication details wp_set_auth_cookie( $user_id, $remember, $secure )

Use is limited to the admin console area. After login wordpress sets the wordpress_logged_in_[hash] cookie, which indicates when you are logged in and who you are, for most interface use, WordPress also sets a few wp-settings-{time}-[UID] cookies. The number on the end is your individual User ID (or UID) from the user database table.

Using the login pages

wp_setcookie($username, $password, $already_md5 = false, $home = ”, $siteurl = ”)

When you log into WordPress from http://example.com/wp-login.php, WordPress stores the following two cookies:

Your user name.

A double-hashed copy of your password.

The cookies are set to expire two weeks from the time they are set.
