CVE-2022-3259
First published: Thu Jun 30 2022(Updated: )
Description of problem: HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) is an opt-in security enhancement that is specified by a web application through the use of a special response header. Once a supported browser receives this header, it will prevent communications from being sent over HTTP to the specified domain and will instead send all communications over HTTPS. It also prevents HTTPS click through prompts on browsers. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.9 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: All data that is shared between windows must have explicit origins to avoid eavesdropping. It is recommended to avoid using "*" for the "targetOrigin" in order to prevent a broadcast of the information. It is also important to validate any message that is received from another window.
