           Summary: XSSAuditor too tolerant of injected data: URLs from
                    other "hostless" schemes.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: tsepez at chromium.org


Originally reported by sasha zivojinovic at crbug.com/142636

XSSAuditor's isSameOrignRequest() gets tripped up when the main page is loaded from say file:/// (which has no host portion) and the injected payload is from data: (which has no host portion).
No risk of cookie theft from data: URLs, but can do nuisance things like navigate the top page.
Unclear whether there are really any protocols that need this protection.
