It is interesting how this would apply for custom browser engines in the future of iOS.
- CharlesW 4y agoThis class of security problem is also a great reason to never allow custom browser engines.
- smoldesu 4y ago...why wouldn't it be possible? iOS has application sandboxing, just drop all DNS requests for the webview that's outside a developer-defined namespace. I'm sure someone at Apple could find a better way to implement it, but we shouldn't accept lame excuses like this. Apple has 200 billion dollars in cash, this is not an advanced problem space.
- happyopossum 4y agoThen the app can use DOH, or tunnel DNS requests over something else - a non-safari browser engine wouldn’t have to use system DNS by any means…
- postalrat 4y agoHow about services like luna, stadia, etc which can render any sort of interactive content (typically games)?
