[jira] [Commented] (CB-2179) Warn developers about including third-party content in their apps.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-2179?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13549043#comment-13549043 ] 

Michael Brooks commented on CB-2179:
------------------------------------

My vote would be to create a parent section called "Security", with sub-articles of "Domain Whitelist" and "iFrame Security" (or whatever we call the untrusted content article).

> We expose our native APIs to iframes as well as top-level content, so we should warn against using iframes for third-party code.
> Might make sense to change "Domain Whitelist Guide" -> "Security & Whitelist Guide" and then add a section to it about the dangers of embedding untrusted content.
