Summary

Enforce (instead of just warn) Private Network Access restrictions on
Chrome for Android Automotive (if BuildInfo::is_automotive), including: -
Private Network Access preflight requests for subresources. See

Risks


Interoperability and Compatibility

Android Automotive is going to be a new platform, so no websites should
rely on making private network requests yet. And our purpose is to ship
this from the beginning to avoid future compatibility risks.


*Gecko*: Positive (https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/143
)

*WebKit*: Positive (https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/163
)

*Web developers*: Mixed signals Anecdotal evidence so far suggests that
most web developers are OK with this new requirement, though some do not
control the target endpoints and would be negatively impacted.

*Other signals*:

Security

This change aims to be security-positive, preventing CSRF attacks against
soft and juicy targets such as router admin interfaces. It does not cover
navigation requests, which are to be addressed in followup launches. DNS
rebinding threats were of particular concern during the design of this
feature:

WebView application risks

Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that
it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?

None


Debuggability

Relevant information (client and resource IP address space) is already
piped into the DevTools network panel. Deprecation warnings and errors will
be surfaced in the DevTools issues panel explaining the problem when it
arises.


Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac,
Linux, Chrome OS, Android, and Android WebView)?No

Anticipated spec changes

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or
interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github issues
in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may
introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or structure of
the API in a non-backward-compatible way).
None
