## Iframes in XSS
There are 3 ways to indicate the content of an iframed page:
* Via `src` indicating an URL (the URL may be cross origin or same origin)
* Via `src` indicating the content using the `data:` protocol
If you access the previous html via a http server (like `python3 -m http.server`) you will notice that all the scripts will be executed (as there is no CSP preventing it)., **the parent won’t be able to access the `secret` var inside any iframe** and **only the iframes if2 & if3 (which are considered to be same-site) can access the secret** in the original window.\
Note how if4 is considered to have `null` origin.
### Iframes with CSP <a href="#iframes_with_csp_40" id="iframes_with_csp_40"></a>
{% hint style="info" %}
Please, note how in the following bypasses the response to the iframed page doesn't contain any CSP header that prevents JS execution.
{% endhint %}
The `self` value of `script-src` won’t allow the execution of the JS code using the `data:` protocol or the `srcdoc` attribute.\
However, even the `none` value of the CSP will allow the execution of the iframes that put a URL (complete or just the path) in the `src` attribute.\
Therefore it’s possible to bypass the CSP of a page with:
Note how the **previous CSP only permits the execution of the inline script**.\
However, **only `if1` and `if2` scripts are going to be executed but only `if1` will be able to access the parent secret**.

Therefore, it’s possible to **bypass a CSP if you can upload a JS file to the server and load it via iframe even with `script-src 'none'`**. This can **potentially be also done abusing a same-site JSONP endpoint**.
You can test this with the following scenario were a cookie is stolen even with `script-src 'none'`. Just run the application and access it with your browser:
<!-- sometimes it can be achieved using defer& async attributes of script within iframe (most of the time in new browser due to SOP it fails but who knows when you are lucky?)-->
The content within an iframe can be subjected to additional restrictions through the use of the `sandbox` attribute. By default, this attribute is not applied, meaning no restrictions are in place.
When utilized, the `sandbox` attribute imposes several limitations:
* The content is treated as if it originates from a unique source.
* Any attempt to submit forms is blocked.
* Execution of scripts is prohibited.
* Access to certain APIs is disabled.
* It prevents links from interacting with other browsing contexts.
* Use of plugins via `<embed>`, `<object>`, `<applet>`, or similar tags is disallowed.
* Navigation of the content's top-level browsing context by the content itself is prevented.
* Features that are triggered automatically, like video playback or auto-focusing of form controls, are blocked.
The attribute's value can be left empty (`sandbox=""`) to apply all the aforementioned restrictions. Alternatively, it can be set to a space-separated list of specific values that exempt the iframe from certain restrictions.
