| Summary | 0007798: wallet UI should warn before redirect | ||||
| Description | The issue is taking by the comments of @grote in 0007473 Places where wallet UI redirect the user outside the wallet: * withdrawal process to bank account (captcha confirmation) * after purchase to merchant site (fulfillment url) (not an exhaustive list) In the case that the redirection URL comes from $DOMAIN if the redirectionUrl.hostname == $DOMAIN then destination is trusted if the redirectionUrl.hostname is in a list of trusted domains by the user, then is trusted if domain is not trusted, * tell the user that is going to be redirected to URL * show a checkbox "I trusted this location, don't warn me again" relevant: https://owasp-aasvs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/requirement-16.1.html https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Unvalidated_Redirects_and_Forwards_Cheat_Sheet.html | ||||

Opening a URL in a browser should always be 'safe'. The wallet won't export dangerous secrets (say via URL parameters), and we're not in a walled garden where we try to keep users inside either. So there is no good reason for this, teaching users to click away warnings is not a good practice, and it is also bad for UX. We will not do this. |
