As of https://crrev.com/9e653328e3 the Views framework will apply the "always
on top" (WS_EX_TOPMOST) style by default to widgets created with TYPE_MENU. CEF
uses this type in CefWindowView::CreateWidget to support child windows that are
not clipped to the parent window bounds (currently indicated by returning a
parent window from CefWindowDelegate::GetParentWindow and setting |is_menu| to
true).
Not setting "always on top" shouldn't be a problem except in cases where some
other window is already "always on top" and the child CefWindow is expected to
overlay that window. For this reason any menus created using ShowMenu will
continue to have the "always on top" style.
This restores the default site isolation mode for Chromium on desktop
platforms. Unit tests have been updated to reflect the new behavior
expectations.
Known behavior changes in CEF are as follows:
- A spare renderer process may be created on initial browser creation or cross-
origin navigation. This spare process may be used with a future cross-origin
navigation or discarded on application shutdown. As a result
CefRenderProcessHandler::OnRenderThreadCreated, which is called shortly after
renderer process creation, can no longer be used to reliably transfer state
for the currently in-progress navigation. Unit tests have been updated to use
the CreateBrowser/OnBeforePopup |extra_info| value for transferring test state
to CefRenderProcessHandler::OnBrowserCreated which will be called in the
correct/expected renderer process.
- Cross-origin navigations will again receive a new renderer process, as
expected. This behavior had briefly regressed in M78 due to the
ProcessSharingWithDefaultSiteInstances feature becoming enabled by default.
- Cross-origin navigations initiated by calling LoadURL in the renderer process
will now crash that process with "bad IPC message" reason
INVALID_INITIATOR_ORIGIN (213). This is a security feature implemented in
Chromium.
- A DevTools browser created using CefBrowserHost::ShowDevTools will receive
the same CefRenderProcessHandler::OnBrowserCreated |extra_info| value that was
set via CreateBrowser/OnBeforePopup for the parent browser.
Requests from the PDF viewer are not associated with a CefBrowser. Consequently,
the InterceptedRequestHandler for those requests will register as an observer of
CefContext destruction. When the browser is closed the InterceptedRequestHandler
is destroyed and an async task is posted to remove/delete the observer on the UI
thread. If CefShutdown is then called the task may execute after shutdown has
started, in which case CONTEXT_STATE_VALID() will return false. We still need to
remove the observer in this case to avoid a use-after-free in
FinishShutdownOnUIThread.
Modifying the URL in OnBeforeResourceLoad causes an internal redirect response.
In cases where the request is cross-origin and credentials mode is 'include'
the redirect response must include the "Access-Control-Allow-Credentials"
header, otherwise the request will be blocked.
When NetworkService is enabled requests created using CefFrame::CreateURLRequest
will call CefRequestHandler::GetAuthCredentials for the associated browser after
calling CefURLRequestClient::GetAuthCredentials if that call returns false.
For 303 redirects all request methods except HEAD are converted to GET as per
the latest http draft. For historical reasons the draft also allows POST
requests to be converted to GETs when following 301/302 redirects. Most major
browsers do this and so shall we. When a request is converted to GET any POST
data should also be removed.
Use 307 redirects instead if you want the request to be repeated using the same
method and POST data.
Modifying the URL in OnBeforeResourceLoad causes an internal redirect response.
In cases where the request is cross-origin (containing a non-null "Origin"
header) the redirect response must include the "Access-Control-Allow-Origin"
header, otherwise the request will be blocked.
This change also fixes a problem where existing request headers would be
discarded if the request was modified in OnBeforeResourceLoad.
Initialization of request objects requires asynchronous hops between the UI and
IO threads. In some cases the browser may be destroyed, the mojo connection may
be aborted, or the ProxyURLLoaderFactory object may be deleted while
initialization is still in progress. This change fixes crashes and adds unit
tests that try to reproduce these conditions.
To test: Run `ceftests --gtest_repeat=50
--gtest_filter=ResourceRequestHandlerTest.Basic*Abort*`
This is a speculative fix for a crash where |on_disconnect_| appears to be null
in ProxyURLLoaderFactory::MaybeDestroySelf. The hypothesis here is that
OnURLLoaderClientError is being called while the proxy object is still in-flight
to ResourceContextData::AddProxy (e.g. before SetDisconnectCallback has been
called for the proxy object). Additonally, this change protects against
MaybeDestroySelf attempting to execute |on_disconnect_| multiple times.
The behavior has changed as follows with NetworkService enabled:
- All pending and in-progress requests will now be aborted when the CEF context
or associated browser is destroyed. The OnResourceLoadComplete callback will
now also be called in this case for in-progress requests that have a handler.
- The CefResourceHandler::Cancel method will now always be called when resource
handling is complete, irrespective of whether handling completed successfully.
- Request callbacks that arrive after the OnBeforeClose callback for the
associated browser (which may happen for in-progress requests that are aborted
on browser destruction) will now always have a non-nullptr CefBrowser
parameter.
- Allow empty parameters to CefRequest and CefResponse methods where it makes
sense (e.g. resetting default response state, or clearing a referrer value).
- Fixed a reference loop that was keeping CefResourceHandler objects from being
destroyed if they were holding a callback reference (from ProcessRequest,
ReadResponse, etc.) during CEF context or associated browser destruction.
- Fixed an issue where the main frame was not detached on browser destruction
which could cause a crash due to RFH use-after-free (see issue #2498).
To test: All unit tests pass as expected.
This change fixes an issue where the cancel_callback for a pending request
might already have been executed when the OnBrowserDestroyed notification is
received.
This change moves the SendProcessMessage method from CefBrowser to CefFrame and
adds CefBrowser parameters to OnProcessMessageReceived and
OnDraggableRegionsChanged.
The internal implementation has changed as follows:
- Frame IDs are now a 64-bit combination of the 32-bit render_process_id and
render_routing_id values that uniquely identify a RenderFrameHost (RFH).
- CefFrameHostImpl objects are now managed by CefBrowserInfo with life span tied
to RFH expectations. Specifically, a CefFrameHostImpl object representing a
sub-frame will be created when a RenderFrame is created in the renderer
process and detached when the associated RenderFrame is deleted or the
renderer process in which it runs has died.
- The CefFrameHostImpl object representing the main frame will always be valid
but the underlying RFH (and associated frame ID) may change over time as a
result of cross-origin navigations. Despite these changes calling LoadURL on
the main frame object in the browser process will always navigate as expected.
- Speculative RFHs, which may be created as a result of a cross-origin
navigation and discarded if that navigation is not committed, are now handled
correctly (e.g. ignored in most cases until they're committed).
- It is less likely, but still possible, to receive a CefFrame object with an
invalid frame ID (ID < 0). This can happen in cases where a RFH has not yet
been created for a sub-frame. For example, when OnBeforeBrowse is called
before initiating navigation in a previously nonexisting sub-frame.
To test: All tests pass with NetworkService enabled and disabled.
