In [1], it's mentioned that: "Furthermore, as a security measure, prefetching of embedded link hostnames is not done from documents loaded over https. If you want to allow it in that context too, just set the preference network.dns.disablePrefetchFromHTTPS to true."
Can someone explain the security concerns with DNS prefetching from a HTTPS site? - Bil [1] http://bitsup.blogspot.com/2008/11/dns-prefetching-for-firefox.html _______________________________________________ dev-security mailing list dev-security@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-security
