Bug 218795 – Layout test imported/w3c/web-platform-tests/service-workers/service-worker/fetch-mixed-content-to-inscope.https.html and fetch-mixed-content-to-outscope.https.html failing

• Status: NEW

After bug 218623,

imported/w3c/web-platform-tests/service-workers/service-worker/fetch-mixed-content-to-inscope.https.html
imported/w3c/web-platform-tests/service-workers/service-worker/fetch-mixed-content-to-outscope.https.html 

are failing. They do a complicate nesting of resource loading which arrives at service-workers/service-worker/resources/fetch-mixed-content-iframe-inscope-to-*html which loads

   http://127.0.0.1:8800(...)fetch-access-control.py?PNGIMAGE" 
  ./dummy?url=http://127.0.0.1:8800(...)fetch-access-control.py?PNGIMAGE" 

as images. The test expects page load to fail but that's no longer the case with loopback IP addresses treated as secure. 

The corresponding tests at wpt.live

https://wpt.live/service-workers/service-worker/fetch-mixed-content-to-inscope.https.html
https://wpt.live/service-workers/service-worker/fetch-mixed-content-to-outscop.https.html

still pass, since they don't use loopback IP addresses. So maybe it's a problem in our test infra as suggested in bug 218623 comment 9.

An alternative would be to force TrustworthyLoopbackIPAddressesEnabled to be disabled during these tests, so that these PNG images are not treated as secure, but I was not able to do that even by adding a

<!-- webkit-test-runner [ TrustworthyLoopbackIPAddressesEnabled=false ] -->

header in the various HTML files involved in these tests.

Uh... maybe that indicates that the ServiceWorker code is missing mixed content checks where required? That seems much more likely than a problem with the preferences, right?

Yes, that makes sense. I guess we'll need to investigate this a bit more...
