5 // Detecting mime types is a tricky business because we need to balance
6 // compatibility concerns with security issues. Here is a survey of how other
7 // browsers behave and then a description of how we intend to behave.
9 // HTML payload, no Content-Type header:
10 // * IE 7: Render as HTML
11 // * Firefox 2: Render as HTML
12 // * Safari 3: Render as HTML
13 // * Opera 9: Render as HTML
15 // Here the choice seems clear:
16 // => Chrome: Render as HTML
18 // HTML payload, Content-Type: "text/plain":
19 // * IE 7: Render as HTML
20 // * Firefox 2: Render as text
21 // * Safari 3: Render as text (Note: Safari will Render as HTML if the URL
22 // has an HTML extension)
23 // * Opera 9: Render as text
25 // Here we choose to follow the majority (and break some compatibility with IE).
26 // Many folks dislike IE's behavior here.
27 // => Chrome: Render as text
28 // We generalize this as follows. If the Content-Type header is text/plain
29 // we won't detect dangerous mime types (those that can execute script).
31 // HTML payload, Content-Type: "application/octet-stream":
32 // * IE 7: Render as HTML
33 // * Firefox 2: Download as application/octet-stream
34 // * Safari 3: Render as HTML
35 // * Opera 9: Render as HTML
38 // => Chrome: Download as application/octet-stream
39 // One factor in this decision is that IIS 4 and 5 will send
40 // application/octet-stream for .xhtml files (because they don't recognize
41 // the extension). We did some experiments and it looks like this doesn't occur
42 // very often on the web. We choose the more secure option.
44 // GIF payload, no Content-Type header:
45 // * IE 7: Render as GIF
46 // * Firefox 2: Render as GIF
47 // * Safari 3: Download as Unknown (Note: Safari will Render as GIF if the
48 // URL has an GIF extension)
49 // * Opera 9: Render as GIF
51 // The choice is clear.
52 // => Chrome: Render as GIF
53 // Once we decide to render HTML without a Content-Type header, there isn't much
54 // reason not to render GIFs.
56 // GIF payload, Content-Type: "text/plain":
57 // * IE 7: Render as GIF
58 // * Firefox 2: Download as application/octet-stream (Note: Firefox will
59 // Download as GIF if the URL has an GIF extension)
60 // * Safari 3: Download as Unknown (Note: Safari will Render as GIF if the
61 // URL has an GIF extension)
62 // * Opera 9: Render as GIF
64 // Displaying as text/plain makes little sense as the content will look like
65 // gibberish. Here, we could change our minds and download.
66 // => Chrome: Render as GIF
68 // GIF payload, Content-Type: "application/octet-stream":
69 // * IE 7: Render as GIF
70 // * Firefox 2: Download as application/octet-stream (Note: Firefox will
71 // Download as GIF if the URL has an GIF extension)
72 // * Safari 3: Download as Unknown (Note: Safari will Render as GIF if the
73 // URL has an GIF extension)
74 // * Opera 9: Render as GIF
76 // We used to render as GIF here, but the problem is that some sites want to
77 // trigger downloads by sending application/octet-stream (even though they
78 // should be sending Content-Disposition: attachment). Although it is safe
79 // to render as GIF from a security perspective, we actually get better
80 // compatibility if we don't sniff from application/octet stream at all.
81 // => Chrome: Download as application/octet-stream
83 // XHTML payload, Content-Type: "text/xml":
84 // * IE 7: Render as XML
85 // * Firefox 2: Render as HTML
86 // * Safari 3: Render as HTML
87 // * Opera 9: Render as HTML
88 // The layout tests rely on us rendering this as HTML.
89 // But we're conservative in XHTML detection, as this runs afoul of the
90 // "don't detect dangerous mime types" rule.
92 // Note that our definition of HTML payload is much stricter than IE's
93 // definition and roughly the same as Firefox's definition.
