*Specification* https://developer.chrome.com/docs/iwa/direct-sockets *Summary* The "direct-sockets-private" blanket permission policy in Isolated Web Apps is being replaced by the more granular "local-network" and "loopback-network" permission policies. Connecting via *TCP direct sockets* or *UDP direct sockets in connected mode* will now require specific permission policies based on the target address space: - Connecting to addresses within the local network address space <https://wicg.github.io/local-network-access/#ip-address-space> requires the "local-network" permission policy. - Connecting to addresses within the loopback network address space <https://wicg.github.io/local-network-access/#ip-address-space> requires the "loopback-network" permission policy. For *UDP direct sockets in bound mode*, the requirements are more stringent: both the "local-network" and "loopback-network" permission policies are required regardless of the specific address being utilized. *Blink component* Blink>Network>Direct Sockets <https://issues.chromium.org/issues?q=customfield1222907:%22Blink%3ENetwork%3EDirect%20Sockets%22> *Risks* *Interoperability and Compatibility* *Gecko & WebKit*: No signal. Direct Sockets are only available on Isolated Web Apps which are only available on ChromeOS. *Web developers: *Update "direct-sockets-private" permission policy with the relevant "local-network" and "loopback-network" permission policies in Isolated Web Apps Manifests. *Debuggability* *No information provided* *Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)?* No. Only ChromeOS. *Estimated milestones* Shipping on ChromeOS 151 *Link to entry on the Chrome Platform Status* https://chromestatus.com/feature/6046077976444928 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "blink-dev" group.
