Neil Conway commented on MESOS-5219:
------------------------------------

[~dlaidlaw] -- thanks for the report. I'm not very familiar with XSS attacks or 
click jacking -- can you describe a hypothetical scenario in which Mesos would 
be involved in such an attack, and how the headers you suggest adding would 
prevent the attack?

> Add security headers to HTTP response

>             Project: Mesos
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: HTTP API
>            Reporter: Don Laidlaw

> Cross site scripting and click jacking are major concerns. Many issues can be 
> resolved by setting some headers in the HTTP responses for the user interface 
> and rest responses for both the master and slave processes.
> X-Frame-Options: Can be set to deny, sameorigin, or allow-from <uri>
> X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
> These would go a long way to making sites using mesos more secure. Note that 
> the user exploiting attacks does not need to have access to the mesos hosts, 
> they are attacked through a user's web browser. So if the user can connect to 
> both mesos and the internet, it is an issue.
