            Bug ID: 273824
           Summary: iOS 17.4 blocks webassembly for lockdown mode, even if
                    exception is added
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 17
          Hardware: iPhone / iPad
                OS: iOS 17
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebAssembly
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: forservicespam at gmail.com

Since 17.4, webassembly does not work in app webviews or Safari when in lockdown mode, even when an exception is added. Previously, if you were in lockdown mode, and added an exception, the app or website would work normally.

A simple way to test this is to visit a wasm feature detector like: https://wasm-feature-detect.surma.technology/

Expected behavior (how it worked in 17.3): no features detected when in lockdown mode. Add a lockdown exception for this site. Now wasm features are detected.

Impacted apps I'm aware of:

Standard Notes

Bitwarden

Mutiny Wallet

All of these rely on some webassembly behavior.
