Intent to unship: typeMustMatch attribute on elements

Frederik Braun Fri, 03 May 2019 02:06:58 -0700

Hi,

In bug 1548773, annevk suggested to unship the `typeMustMatch`attribute
from <object> elements[1].

No other browser supports this and we have just learned that this
attribute can be used to leak information about cross-origin resources[2].

While it seems worth removing immediately to me, I'm interested in
additional feedback.

Thanks,
Freddy
