           Summary: WOFF fonts loaded through @font-face should have Same
                    Origin Restrictions
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Text
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: tabatkins at google.com


Per the WOFF spec at <http://www.w3.org/TR/WOFF/>, UAs supporting WOFF must apply same-origin restrictions to the file.  Currently, we allow WOFF to be served from any origin.

Firefox 4 and IE9 will ship with SOR on WOFF fonts.

CORS should be usable to defeat the restriction when necessary, such as with font-serving services.  Google's font api currently sends CORS headers allowing usage on any origin.

(This is also filed as <http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=71423>.)
