“document.domain” setting

[ashoot96]

Hi Team,

I submit a ticket for review as suggested in this post (​https://wordpress.org/support/topic/document-domain-setting/).

Do you know any plans to address “document.domain” setting problem in upcoming WordPress releases:
– ​https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document/domain
– ​https://developer.chrome.com/blog/immutable-document-domain/

I check the latest WordPress release (v6.0.1) and it has four JavaScript libraries using this property:

• wp-admin\js\gallery.js
• wp-includes\js\tinymce\wp-tinymce.js
• wp-includes\js\dist\vendor\wp-polyfill.js
• wp-includes\js\dist\vendor\wp-polyfill-url.js

Hello @ashoot96 and welcome to WordPress Core Trac,

Thank you for opening this ticket, I'm moving it to the next major release (milestone 6.1).

We reviewed this with @Clorith during today's bug scrub.

As per @Clorith's comment: The issue is still lacking a patch, and the version span since FireFox changed it's implementation (the only one it seems like at this time?), without anything breaking, I don't think the pressure is high, although should obviously be resolved at some point to follow best practices and web standards.

Moving to Future Release. Anyone is welcome to work on a patch :)

Just a note, wp-polyfill and wp-polyfill-url are external libraries maintained elsewhere in @wordpress/babel-preset-default and core-js-url-browser core-js-url-browser respectively.
