search element with form functionality — Last Updated 1 December 2021Origins are the fundamental currency of the web's security model. Two actors in the web platform that share an origin are assumed to trust each other and to have the same authority. Actors with differing origins are considered potentially hostile versus each other, and are isolated from each other to varying degrees.
For example, if Example Bank's web site, hosted at bank.example.com, tries to examine the DOM of Example Charity's web site, hosted
at charity.example.org, a "SecurityError"
DOMException will be raised.
An origin is one of the following:
An internal value, with no serialization it can be recreated from (it is serialized as
"null" per serialization of an origin), for which the only
meaningful operation is testing for equality.
A tuple consists of:
Origins can be shared, e.g., among multiple
Document objects. Furthermore, origins are generally
immutable. Only the domain of a tuple origin can be changed, and only through the document.domain API.
The serialization of ("https", "xn--maraa-rta.example", null, null) is "https://xn--maraa-rta.example".
| A | B | same origin | same origin-domain |
|---|---|---|---|
("https", "example.org", null, null)
| ("https", "example.org", null, null)
| ✅ | ✅ |
("https", "example.org", 314, null)
| ("https", "example.org", 420, null)
| ❌ | ❌ |
("https", "example.org", 314, "example.org")
| ("https", "example.org", 420, "example.org")
| ❌ | ✅ |
("https", "example.org", null, null)
| ("https", "example.org", null, "example.org")
| ✅ | ❌ |
("https", "example.org", null, "example.org")
| ("http", "example.org", null, "example.org")
| ❌ | ❌ |
A scheme-and-host is a tuple of an ASCII string and a host.
A site is an opaque origin or a scheme-and-host.
Unlike the same origin and same origin-domain concepts, for schemelessly same site and same site, the port and domain components are ignored.
For the reasons explained in URL, the same site and schemelessly same site concepts should be avoided when possible, in favor of same origin checks.
Given that wildlife.museum, museum, and
com are public suffixes and that
example.com is not:
| A | B | schemelessly same site | same site |
|---|---|---|---|
("https", "example.com")
| ("https", "sub.example.com")
| ✅ | ✅ |
("https", "example.com")
| ("https", "sub.other.example.com")
| ✅ | ✅ |
("https", "example.com")
| ("http", "non-secure.example.com")
| ✅ | ❌ |
("https", "r.wildlife.museum")
| ("https", "sub.r.wildlife.museum")
| ✅ | ✅ |
("https", "r.wildlife.museum")
| ("https", "sub.other.r.wildlife.museum")
| ✅ | ✅ |
("https", "r.wildlife.museum")

| ❌ | ❌ |
("https", "r.wildlife.museum")

| ❌ | ❌ |
("https", "wildlife.museum")

| ✅ | ✅ |
(Here we have omitted the port and domain components since they are not considered.)
Support in all current engines.
document.domain [ = domain ]Returns the current domain used for security checks.
Can be set to a value that removes subdomains, to change the origin's domain to allow pages on other subdomains of the same domain (if they do the same thing) to access each other. This enables pages on different hosts of a domain to synchronously access each other's DOMs.
In sandboxed iframes, Documents with opaque origins, Documents without a browsing context, and when the "document-domain" feature is disabled, the setter will
throw a "SecurityError" exception. In cases where crossOriginIsolated or originAgentCluster return true, the setter will do
nothing.
Avoid using the document.domain
setter. It undermines the security protections provided by the same-origin policy. This is
especially acute when using shared hosting; for example, if an untrusted third party is able to
host an HTTP server at the same IP address but on a different port, then the same-origin
protection that normally protects two different sites on the same host will fail, as the ports
are ignored when comparing origins after the document.domain setter has been used.
Because of these security pitfalls, this feature is in the process of being removed from the web platform. (This is a long process that takes many years.)
Instead, use postMessage() or
MessageChannel objects to communicate across origins in a safe manner.
window.originAgentClusterReturns true if this Window belongs to an agent cluster which is
origin-keyed, in the manner described in
this section.
A Document delivered over a secure context can request that it be
placed in an origin-keyed agent
cluster, by using the `Origin-Agent-Cluster` HTTP
response header. This header is a structured header
whose value must be a boolean. [STRUCTURED-FIELDS]
Values
that are not the structured header boolean
true value (i.e., `?1`) will be ignored.
The consequences of using this header are that attempting
to relax the same-origin restriction using
document.domain will instead do nothing, and it will not
be possible to send WebAssembly.Module objects to cross-origin Documents
(even if they are same site). Behind the scenes, this isolation can allow user agents
to allocate implementation-specific resources corresponding to agent
clusters, such as processes or threads, more efficiently.
Note that within a browsing context group, the `Origin-Agent-Cluster`
header can never cause same-origin Document objects to end up in different agent clusters, even if one sends the header and the other
doesn't.
This means that the originAgentCluster getter can return false, even if the
header is set, if the header was omitted on a previously-loaded same-origin page in the same
browsing context group. Similarly, it can return true even when the header is not
set.
Documents with an opaque
origin can be considered unconditionally origin-keyed; for them the header has no effect,
and the originAgentCluster getter will always return
true.
Similarly, Documents whose agent cluster's
cross-origin isolation mode is not
"none" are automatically origin-keyed. The
`Origin-Agent-Cluster` header might be useful as an additional hint to
implementations about resource allocation, since the `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy` and
`Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy` headers used to achieve cross-origin isolation are
more about ensuring that everything in the same address space opts in to being there. But adding
it would have no additional observable effects on author code.
A sandboxing flag set is a set of zero or more of the following flags, which are used to restrict the abilities that potentially untrusted resources have:
This flag prevents content from navigating browsing contexts other than the sandboxed browsing context itself (or browsing contexts further nested inside it), auxiliary browsing contexts (which are protected by the sandboxed auxiliary navigation browsing context flag defined next), and the top-level browsing context (which is protected by the sandboxed top-level navigation without user activation browsing context flag and sandboxed top-level navigation with user activation browsing context flag defined below).
If the sandboxed auxiliary navigation browsing context flag is not set, then in certain cases the restrictions nonetheless allow popups (new top-level browsing contexts) to be opened. These browsing contexts always have one permitted sandboxed navigator, set when the browsing context is created, which allows the browsing context that created them to actually navigate them. (Otherwise, the sandboxed navigation browsing context flag would prevent them from being navigated even if they were opened.)
This flag prevents content from creating new auxiliary browsing
contexts, e.g. using the target attribute or
the window.open() method.
This flag prevents content from navigating their top-level browsing context and prevents content from closing their top-level browsing context. It is consulted only when the sandboxed browsing context's active window does not have transient activation.
When the sandboxed top-level navigation without user activation browsing context flag is not set, content can navigate its top-level browsing context, but other browsing contexts are still protected by the sandboxed navigation browsing context flag and possibly the sandboxed auxiliary navigation browsing context flag.
This flag prevents content from navigating their top-level browsing context and prevents content from closing their top-level browsing context. It is consulted only when the sandboxed browsing context's active window has transient activation.
As with the sandboxed top-level navigation without user activation browsing context flag, this flag only affects the top-level browsing context; if it is not set, other browsing contexts might still be protected by other flags.
This flag prevents content from instantiating plugins,
whether using the embed element, the object element, or through navigation of their nested browsing
context.
This flag forces content into a unique origin, thus preventing it from accessing other content from the same origin.
This flag also prevents script from reading from or writing to the
document.cookie IDL attribute, and blocks access to
localStorage.
This flag blocks form submission.
This flag disables the Pointer Lock API. [POINTERLOCK]
This flag blocks script execution.
This flag blocks features that trigger automatically, such as automatically playing a video or automatically focusing a form control.
document.domain
browsing context flagThis flag prevents content from using the
document.domain setter.
This flag prevents content from escaping the sandbox by ensuring that any auxiliary browsing context it creates inherits the content's active sandboxing flag set.
This flag prevents content from using any of the following features to produce modal dialogs:
This flag disables the ability to lock the screen orientation. [SCREENORIENTATION]
This flag disables the Presentation API. [PRESENTATION]
This flag prevents content from initiating or instantiating downloads, whether through downloading hyperlinks or through navigation that gets handled as a download.
When the user agent is to parse a sandboxing directive, given a string input, a sandboxing flag set output, it must run the following steps:
Split input on ASCII whitespace, to obtain tokens.
Let output be empty.
Add the following flags to output:
The sandboxed auxiliary navigation browsing context flag, unless
tokens contains the allow-popups keyword.
The sandboxed top-level navigation without user activation browsing context
flag, unless tokens contains the allow-top-navigation
keyword.
The sandboxed top-level navigation with user activation browsing context flag,
unless tokens contains either the allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation
keyword or the allow-top-navigation keyword.
This means that if the allow-top-navigation is present, the allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation
keyword will have no effect. For this reason, specifying both is a document conformance error.
The sandboxed origin browsing context flag, unless the tokens
contains the allow-same-origin keyword.
The allow-same-origin keyword
is intended for two cases.
First, it can be used to allow content from the same site to be sandboxed to disable scripting, while still allowing access to the DOM of the sandboxed content.
Second, it can be used to embed content from a third-party site, sandboxed to prevent that site from opening popups, etc, without preventing the embedded page from communicating back to its originating site, using the database APIs to store data, etc.
The sandboxed forms browsing context flag, unless tokens
contains the allow-forms keyword.
The sandboxed pointer lock browsing context flag, unless tokens
contains the allow-pointer-lock
keyword.
The sandboxed scripts browsing context flag, unless tokens
contains the allow-scripts keyword.
The sandboxed automatic features browsing context flag, unless tokens contains the allow-scripts keyword (defined above).
This flag is relaxed by the same keyword as scripts, because when scripts are enabled these features are trivially possible anyway, and it would be unfortunate to force authors to use script to do them when sandboxed rather than allowing them to use the declarative features.
The sandbox propagates to auxiliary browsing contexts flag, unless
tokens contains the allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox
keyword.
The sandboxed modals flag, unless tokens contains the allow-modals keyword.
The sandboxed orientation lock browsing context flag, unless
tokens contains the allow-orientation-lock
keyword.
The sandboxed presentation browsing context flag, unless tokens
contains the allow-presentation
keyword.
The sandboxed downloads browsing context flag, unless tokens
contains the allow-downloads keyword.
Every top-level browsing context has a popup sandboxing flag set, which is a sandboxing flag set. When a browsing context is created, its popup sandboxing flag set must be empty. It is populated by the rules for choosing a browsing context and the obtain a browsing context to use for a navigation response algorithm.
Every iframe element has an iframe sandboxing flag set,
which is a sandboxing flag set. Which flags in an iframe
sandboxing flag set are set at any particular time is determined by the iframe
element's sandbox attribute.
Every Document has an active sandboxing flag set,
which is a sandboxing flag set. When the Document is created, its
active sandboxing flag set must be empty. It is populated by the navigation algorithm.
Every resource that is obtained by the navigation algorithm has a forced sandboxing flag set, which is a sandboxing flag set. A resource by default has no flags set in its forced sandboxing flag set, but other specifications can define that certain flags are set.
In particular, the forced sandboxing flag set is used by Content Security Policy. [CSP]
To determine the creation sandboxing flags for a browsing context browsing context, given null or an element embedder, return the union of the flags that are present in the following sandboxing flag sets:
If embedder is null, then: the flags set on browsing context's popup sandboxing flag set.
If embedder is an element, then: the flags set on embedder's
iframe sandboxing flag set.
If embedder is an element, then: the flags set on embedder's node document's active sandboxing flag set.
After creation, the sandboxing flags for a browsing context browsing context are the result of determining the creation sandboxing flags given browsing context and browsing context's container.
A cross-origin opener policy value allows a document which is navigated to in a top-level browsing context to force the creation of a new top-level browsing context, and a corresponding group. The possible values are:
unsafe-none"This is the (current) default and means that the document will occupy the same top-level browsing context as its predecessor, unless that document specified a different cross-origin opener policy.
same-origin-allow-popups"This forces the creation of a new top-level browsing context for the document, unless its predecessor specified the same cross-origin opener policy and they are same origin.
same-origin"This behaves the same as "same-origin-allow-popups", with the addition that
any auxiliary browsing context created needs to contain same origin
documents that also have the same cross-origin opener policy or it will appear
closed to the opener.
same-origin-plus-COEP"This behaves the same as "same-origin", with the
addition that it sets the (new) top-level browsing context's group's cross-origin isolation
mode to one of "logical" or "concrete".
"same-origin-plus-COEP" cannot
be directly set via the `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy` header, but results
from a combination of setting both `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy:
same-origin` and a
`Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy` header whose value is compatible with
cross-origin isolation together.
A cross-origin opener policy consists of:
A value, which is a cross-origin opener policy value, initially "unsafe-none".
A reporting endpoint, which is string or null, initially null.
A report-only value, which is a cross-origin opener policy value, initially
"unsafe-none".
A report-only reporting endpoint, which is a string or null, initially null.
To match cross-origin opener policy values, given a cross-origin opener policy value A, an origin originA, a cross-origin opener policy value B, and an origin originB:
If A is "unsafe-none" and B
is "unsafe-none", then return true.
If A is "unsafe-none" or B is
"unsafe-none", then return false.
If A is B and originA is same origin with originB, then return true.
Return false.
A Document's cross-origin opener
policy is derived from the `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy` and `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy-Report-Only` HTTP response headers.
These headers are structured headers whose value must
be a token. [STRUCTURED-FIELDS]
The valid token values are the opener policy values. The token may also have
attached parameters; of these, the "report-to" parameter can have a valid URL
string identifying an appropriate reporting endpoint. [REPORTING]
Per the processing model described below, user agents will ignore this header if it contains an invalid value. Likewise, user agents will ignore this header if the value cannot be parsed as a token.
To obtain a cross-origin opener policy given a response response and an environment reservedEnvironment:
Let policy be a new cross-origin opener policy.
If reservedEnvironment is a non-secure context, then return policy.
Let value be the result of getting a structured field value given
`Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy` and "item" from
response's header list.
If parsedItem is not null, then:
If parsedItem[0] is "same-origin", then:
Let coep be the result of obtaining a cross-origin embedder policy from response and reservedEnvironment.
If coep's value is
compatible with cross-origin isolation, then set policy's value to "same-origin-plus-COEP".
Otherwise, set policy's value to "same-origin".
If parsedItem[0] is "same-origin-allow-popups", then set
policy's value to "same-origin-allow-popups".
If parsedItem[1]["report-to"] exists and it is a string, then set policy's reporting endpoint to
parsedItem[1]["report-to"].
Set parsedItem to the result of getting a structured field value
given `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy-Report-Only` and "item"
from response's header
list.
If parsedItem is not null, then:
If parsedItem[0] is "same-origin", then:
Let coep be the result of obtaining a cross-origin embedder policy from response and reservedEnvironment.
If coep's value is
compatible with cross-origin isolation or coep's report-only value is compatible with
cross-origin isolation, then set policy's report-only value to "same-origin-plus-COEP".
Report only COOP also considers report-only COEP to assign the special
"same-origin-plus-COEP" value. This allows
developers more freedom in the order of deployment of COOP and COEP.
Otherwise, set policy's report-only value to "same-origin".
If parsedItem[0] is "same-origin-allow-popups", then set
policy's report-only value to
"same-origin-allow-popups".
If parsedItem[1]["report-to"] exists and it is a string, then set policy's report-only reporting endpoint to
parsedItem[1]["report-to"].
Return policy.
To check if COOP values require a browsing context group switch, given a boolean isInitialAboutBlank, two origins responseOrigin and activeDocumentNavigationOrigin, and two cross-origin opener policy values responseCOOPValue and activeDocumentCOOPValue:
If the result of matching activeDocumentCOOPValue, activeDocumentNavigationOrigin, responseCOOPValue, and responseOrigin is true, return false.
If all of the following are true:
isInitialAboutBlank,
activeDocumentCOOPValue's value is
"same-origin-allow-popups".
responseCOOPValue is "unsafe-none",
then return false.
Return true.
To check if enforcing report-only COOP would require a browsing context group switch, given a boolean isInitialAboutBlank, two origins responseOrigin, activeDocumentNavigationOrigin, and two cross-origin opener policies responseCOOP and activeDocumentCOOP:
If the result of checking if COOP values require a browsing context group switch given isInitialAboutBlank, responseOrigin, activeDocumentNavigationOrigin, responseCOOP's report-only value and activeDocumentCOOPReportOnly's report-only value is false, then return false.
Matching report-only policies allows a website to specify the same report-only cross-origin opener policy on all its pages and not receive violation reports for navigations between these pages.
If the result of checking if COOP values require a browsing context group switch given isInitialAboutBlank, responseOrigin, activeDocumentNavigationOrigin, responseCOOP's value and activeDocumentCOOPReportOnly's report-only value is true, then return true.
If the result of checking if COOP values require a browsing context group switch given isInitialAboutBlank, responseOrigin, activeDocumentNavigationOrigin, responseCOOP's report-only value and activeDocumentCOOPReportOnly's value is true, then return true.
Return false.
A cross-origin opener policy enforcement result is a struct with the following items:
A boolean needs a browsing context group switch, initially false.
A boolean would need a browsing context group switch due to report-only, initially false.
A URL url.
An origin origin.
A cross-origin opener policy cross-origin opener policy.
A boolean current context is navigation source.
To enforce a response's cross-origin opener policy, given a browsing context browsingContext, a URL responseURL, an origin responseOrigin, a cross-origin opener policy responseCOOP, a cross-origin opener policy enforcement result currentCOOPEnforcementResult, and a referrer referrer:
Let newCOOPEnforcementResult be a new cross-origin opener policy enforcement result whose needs a browsing context group switch is currentCOOPEnforcementResult's needs a browsing context group switch, would need a browsing context group switch due to report-only is currentCOOPEnforcementResult's would need a browsing context group switch due to report-only, url is responseURL, origin is responseOrigin, coop is responseCOOP, and current context is navigation source is true.
Let isInitialAboutBlank be true if browsingContext is still on
its initial about:blank Document; otherwise, false.
If isInitialAboutBlank is true and browsingContext's initial URL is null, set browsingContext's initial URL to responseURL.
If the result of checking if COOP values require a browsing context group switch given isInitialAboutBlank, currentCOOPEnforcementResult's cross-origin opener policy's value, currentCOOPEnforcementResult's origin, responseCOOP's value, and responseOrigin is true, then:
Set newCOOPEnforcementResult's needs a browsing context group switch to true.
If browsingContext's group's browsing context set's size is greater than 1, then:
Queue a violation report for browsing
context group switch when navigating to a COOP response with responseCOOP,
"enforce", responseURL,
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's url,
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's origin, responseOrigin, and
referrer.
Queue a violation report for browsing
context group switch when navigating away from a COOP response with
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's cross-origin
opener policy, "enforce",
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's url,
responseURL, currentCOOPEnforcementResult's origin, responseOrigin, and
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's current
context is navigation source.
If the result of checking if enforcing report-only COOP would require a browsing context group switch given isInitialAboutBlank, responseOrigin, currentCOOPEnforcementResult's origin, responseCOOP, and currentCOOPEnforcementResult's cross-origin opener policy, is true, then:
Set result's would need a browsing context group switch due to report-only to true.
If browsingContext's group's browsing context set's size is greater than 1, then:
Queue a violation report for browsing context group switch
when navigating to a COOP response with responseCOOP, "reporting", responseURL,
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's url,
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's origin,
responseOrigin, and referrer.
Queue a violation report for browsing
context group switch when navigating away from a COOP response with
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's cross-origin
opener policy, "reporting",
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's url,
responseURL, currentCOOPEnforcementResult's origin, responseOrigin, and
currentCOOPEnforcementResult's current
context is navigation source.
Return newCOOPEnforcementResult.
To obtain a browsing context to use for a navigation response, given a browsing contexts browsingContext, a sandboxing flag set sandboxFlags, a cross-origin opener policy navigationCOOP, and a cross-origin opener policy enforcement result coopEnforcementResult:
Assert: browsingContext is a top-level browsing context.
If coopEnforcementResult's needs a browsing context group switch is false, then:
If coopEnforcementResult's would need a browsing context group switch due to report-only is true, set browsing context's virtual browsing context group ID to a new unique identifier.
Return browsingContext.
Let newBrowsingContext be the result of creating a new top-level browsing context.
If navigationCOOP's value is "same-origin-plus-COEP", then set
newBrowsingContext's group's cross-origin isolation mode to either "logical" or "concrete". The choice of which is
implementation-defined.
It is difficult on some platforms to provide the security properties required by
the cross-origin
isolated capability. "concrete"
grants access to it and "logical" does
not.
If sandboxFlags is not empty, then:
Assert navigationCOOP's value is
"unsafe-none".
Assert: newBrowsingContext's popup sandboxing flag set is empty.
Set newBrowsingContext's popup sandboxing flag set to a clone of sandboxFlags.
Discard browsingContext.
This has no effect on browsingContext's group, unless browsingContext was its sole top-level browsing context. In that case, the user agent might delete the browsing context group which no longer contains any browsing contexts.
Return newBrowsingContext.
The impact of swapping browsing context groups following a navigation is not fully defined. It is currently under discussion in issue #5350.
An accessor-accessed relationship is an enum that describes the relationship between two browsing contexts between which an access happened. It can take the following values:
The accessor browsing context or one of its ancestors is the opener browsing context of the accessed browsing context's top-level browsing context.
The accessed browsing context or one of its ancestors is the opener browsing context of the accessor browsing context's top-level browsing context.
There is no opener relationship between the accessor browsing context, the accessor browsing context, or any of their ancestors.
To check if an access between two browsing contexts should be reported, given two browsing contexts accessor and accessed, a JavaScript property name P, and an environment settings object environment:
If P is not a cross-origin accessible window property name, then return.
If accessor's active document's origin or any of its ancestors' active document's origins are not same origin with accessor's top-level browsing context's active document's origin, or if accessed's active document's origin or any of its ancestors' active document's origins are not same origin with accessed's top-level browsing context's active document's origin, then return.
This avoids leaking information about cross-origin iframes to a top level frame with cross-origin opener policy reporting.
If accessor's top-level browsing context's virtual browsing context group ID is accessed's top-level browsing context's virtual browsing context group ID, then return.
Let accessorAccessedRelationship be a new accessor-accessed relationship with value none.
If accessed's top-level browsing context's opener browsing context is accessor or an ancestor of accessor, then set accessorAccessedRelationship to accessor is opener.
If accessor's top-level browsing context's opener browsing context is accessed or an ancestor of accessed, then set accessorAccessedRelationship to accessor is openee.
Queue violation reports for accesses, given accessorAccessedRelationship, accessor's top-level browsing context's active document's cross-origin opener policy, accessed's top-level browsing context's active document's cross-origin opener policy, accessor's active document's URL, accessed's active document's URL, accessor's top-level browsing context's initial URL, accessed's top-level browsing context's initial URL, accessor's active document's origin, accessed's active document's origin, accessor's top-level browsing context's opener origin at creation, accessed's top-level browsing context's opener origin at creation, accessor's top-level browsing context's active document's referrer, accessed's top-level browsing context's active document's referrer, P, and environment.
To sanitize a URL to send in a report given a URL url:

To queue violation reports for accesses, given an accessor-accessed relationship accessorAccessedRelationship, two cross-origin opener policies accessorCOOP and accessedCOOP, four URLs accessorURL, accessedURL, accessorInitialURL, accessedInitialURL, four origins accessorOrigin, accessedOrigin, accessorCreatorOrigin and accessedCreatorOrigin, two referrers accessorReferrer and accessedReferrer, a string propertyName, and an environment settings object environment:
If coop's reporting endpoint is null, return.
Let coopValue be coop's value.
If disposition is "reporting", then set
coopValue to coop's report-only value.
If accessorAccessedRelationship is accessor is opener:

Headers/Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy
Support in all current engines.
An embedder policy value is one of three strings that controls the fetching of cross-origin resources without explicit permission from resource owners.
unsafe-none"This is the default value. When this value is used, cross-origin resources can be fetched
without giving explicit permission through the CORS protocol or the
`Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy` header.
require-corp"When this value is used, fetching cross-origin resources requires the server's
explicit permission through the CORS protocol or the
`Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy` header.
credentialless"When this value is used, fetching cross-origin no-CORS resources omits credentials. In
exchange, an explicit `Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy` header is not required. Other
requests sent with credentials require the server's explicit permission through the CORS
protocol or the `Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy` header.
Before supporting "credentialless", implementers are
strongly encouraged to support both:
Otherwise, it would allow attackers to leverage the client's network position to read non public resources, using the cross-origin isolated capability.
An embedder policy value is compatible with cross-origin isolation if
it is "credentialless" or "require-corp".
An embedder policy consists of:
A value, which is an embedder policy value, initially "unsafe-none".
A reporting endpoint string, initially the empty string.
A report only value, which is an embedder policy value, initially
"unsafe-none".
A report only reporting endpoint string, initially the empty string.
The "coep" report type is a report type whose value
is "coep". It is visible to
ReportingObservers.
The `Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy` and
`Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy-Report-Only` HTTP response
headers allow a server to declare an embedder policy for an environment
settings object. These headers are structured
headers whose values must be token. [STRUCTURED-FIELDS]
The valid token values are the embedder policy values. The token may also have attached parameters; of these, the "report-to" parameter can have a valid URL
string identifying an appropriate reporting endpoint. [REPORTING]
The processing model fails open (by defaulting
to "unsafe-none") in the presence of a header that cannot
be parsed as a token. This includes inadvertent lists created by combining multiple instances of
the `Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy` header present in a given response:
`Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy` | Final embedder policy value |
|---|---|
| No header delivered | "unsafe-none" |
`require-corp` | "require-corp" |
`unknown-value` | "unsafe-none" |
`require-corp, unknown-value` | "unsafe-none" |
`unknown-value, unknown-value` | "unsafe-none" |
`unknown-value, require-corp` | "unsafe-none" |
`require-corp, require-corp` | "unsafe-none" |
(The same applies to `Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy-Report-Only`.)
To obtain an embedder policy from a response response and an environment environment:
Let policy be a new embedder policy.
If environment is a non-secure context, then return policy.
Let parsedItem be the result of getting a structured field value
with `Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy` and "item" from
response's header list.
If parsedItem is non-null and parsedItem[0] is compatible with cross-origin isolation:
Set parsedItem to the result of getting a structured field value
with `Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy-Report-Only` and "item"
from response's header
list.
If parsedItem is non-null and parsedItem[0] is compatible with cross-origin isolation:
Return policy.
To check a navigation response's adherence to its embedder policy given a response response, a browsing context target, and an embedder policy responsePolicy:
If target is not a child browsing context, then return true.
Let parentPolicy be target's container document's policy container's embedder policy.
If parentPolicy's report-only
value is compatible with cross-origin isolation and
responsePolicy's value is not, then
queue a cross-origin embedder policy inheritance violation with response,
"navigation", parentPolicy's report only reporting endpoint,
"reporting", and target's container document's relevant settings
object.
If parentPolicy's value is not compatible with cross-origin isolation or responsePolicy's value is compatible with cross-origin isolation, then return true.
Queue a cross-origin embedder policy inheritance violation with
response, "navigation", parentPolicy's reporting endpoint,
"enforce", and target's
container document's relevant settings
object.
Return false.
To check a global object's embedder policy given a WorkerGlobalScope
workerGlobalScope, an environment settings object owner, and
a response response:
If workerGlobalScope is not a DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope object,
then return true.
Let policy be workerGlobalScope's embedder policy.
Let ownerPolicy be owner's policy container's embedder policy.
If ownerPolicy's report-only
value is compatible with cross-origin isolation and policy's
value is not, then queue a cross-origin
embedder policy inheritance violation with response, "worker
initialization", owner's policy's report only reporting endpoint,
"reporting", and owner.
If ownerPolicy's value is not compatible with cross-origin isolation or policy's value is compatible with cross-origin isolation, then return true.
Queue a cross-origin embedder policy inheritance violation with
response, "worker initialization", owner's policy's
reporting endpoint,
"enforce", and owner.
Return false.
To queue a cross-origin embedder policy inheritance violation given a response response, a string type, a string endpoint, a string disposition, and an environment settings object settings:
Let serialized be the result of serializing a response URL for reporting with response.
Let body be a new object containing the following properties:
| key | value |
|---|---|
| type | type |
| blockedURL | serialized |
| disposition | disposition |
Queue body as the
"coep" report type for endpoint on settings.
A policy container is a struct containing policies that apply to
a Document, a WorkerGlobalScope, or a WorkletGlobalScope.
It has the following items:
A CSP list, which is a CSP list. It is initially empty.
An embedder policy, which is an embedder policy. It is initially a new embedder policy.
A referrer policy, which is a referrer policy. It is initially the default referrer policy.
Move other policies into the policy container.
To clone a policy container given a policy container policyContainer:
Let clone be a new policy container.
For each policy in policyContainer's CSP list, append a copy of policy into clone's CSP list.
Set clone's embedder policy to a copy of policyContainer's embedder policy.
Set clone's referrer policy to policyContainer's referrer policy.
Return clone.
To determine whether a URL url requires storing the policy container in history:
If url's scheme is "blob", then return false.
If url is about:srcdoc, then return false.
If url is local, then return true.
Return false.
To create a policy container from a fetch response given a response response and an environment-or-null environment:
If response's URL's scheme is "blob", then return a clone of response's URL's blob URL
entry's environment's policy
container.
Let result be a new policy container.
Set result's CSP list to the result of parsing a response's Content Security Policies given response.
If environment is non-null, then set result's embedder policy to the result of obtaining an embedder policy given response
and environment. Otherwise, set it to "unsafe-none".
Set result's referrer
policy to the result of parsing the
`Referrer-Policy` header given response. [REFERRERPOLICY]
Return result.
To determine navigation params policy container given a URL responseURL and four policy container-or-nulls historyPolicyContainer, initiatorPolicyContainer, parentPolicyContainer, and responsePolicyContainer:
If historyPolicyContainer is not null, then:
Assert: responseURL requires storing the policy container in history.
Return a clone of historyPolicyContainer.
If responseURL is about:srcdoc, then:
Assert: parentPolicyContainer is not null.
Return a clone of parentPolicyContainer.
If responseURL is local and initiatorPolicyContainer is not null, then return a clone of initiatorPolicyContainer.
If responsePolicyContainer is not null, then return responsePolicyContainer.
Return a new policy container.
To initialize a worker global scope's policy
container given a WorkerGlobalScope workerGlobalScope, a response response, and an environment
environment:
If workerGlobalScope's url
is local but its scheme
is not "blob":
Otherwise, set workerGlobalScope's policy container to the result of creating a policy container from a fetch response given response and environment.
