Explainer https://github.com/WICG/local-network-access/blob/main/explainer.md Specification https://wicg.github.io/local-network-access/#integration-with-webtransport Summary Restricts the ability to make requests to the user's local network using WebTransport, gated behind a permission prompt. A local network request is any request from a public website to a local IP address or loopback, or from a local website (eg intranet) to loopback. Gating the ability for websites to perform these requests behind a permission reduces the ability of sites to use these requests to fingerprint the user's local network. This permission is restricted to secure contexts. This work is adding to the Local Network Access Restrictions work here: https://chromestatus.com/feature/5152728072060928 Blink component Blink>SecurityFeature>LocalNetworkAccess Web Feature ID local-network-access Risks Interoperability and Compatibility No information provided Gecko: No signal WebKit: No signal Web developers: No signals Other signals: Activation A new permission will be shown to users, which may be unexpected, and if users deny the permission functionality may break (potentially requiring additional support from site owners). As this is building off of the first Local Network Access launch, this should be a minimal risk, but has a chance of impacting those who are impacted by this launch but were not impacted by the original Local Network Access launch. This is slightly different from the other LNA launches as WebTransport is restricted to secure contexts, so we do not have any worries about mixed content blocking. 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? No information provided Debuggability No information provided Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)? No This is unsupported on WebView for the same reasons that Local Network Access is unsupported on WebView Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests? No DevTrial instructions https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GHbpRTCnfDXq9o8WKyrG7oPAiWC6Yozac-PvbfO3KoY/edit?usp=sharing Flag name on about://flags local-network-access-check-webtransport Finch feature name LocalNetworkAccessChecksWebTransport Requires code in //chrome?
