Gnash currently makes his own sockets.
I agree ideally it should allow the hosting app to do that instead,
but anyway in this current situation you can instruct Gnash to read
cookies from a file using the GNASH_COOKIES_IN environment variable.
The file must be in the mozilla cookie format. See the libcurl page
about that format [1].
The curl adaptar code is libbase/curl_adapter.cpp, function importCookies.
