            Bug ID: 233165
           Summary: AWS CloudFront signed cookies got thrown under the bus
                    with the recent iframe/cookie lockdown
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 15
          Hardware: Mac (Intel)
                OS: macOS 11
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Frames
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: sam at msgbox.me

Safari prevents CloudFront signed cookies from being transmitted to the server when the web application lives inside an iframe belonging to another domain.

I understand browsers are securing against malicious third-party cookies, but how is an HTTPS cookie a threat?

See references to this issue:

As far as I know, Chrome & Firefox do not prevent CloudFront signed cookies from being transmitted to the CloudFront distribution server.
