[msal-v5] Add local-network-access iframe attribute for Chrome 142+ compatibility (#8132)
Chrome 142 enables Local Network Access Restrictions by default, causing
`ssoSilent()` to fail with `BrowserAuthError: monitor_window_timeout`
when the iframe cannot access authorization servers on local networks.
## Changes
- **lib/msal-browser/src/interaction_handler/SilentHandler.ts**: Added
`allow="local-network-access *"` attribute to iframe created in
`createHiddenIframe()`
- **lib/msal-browser/test/interaction_handler/SilentHandler.spec.ts**:
Added test verifying the allow attribute is set correctly
- **change/@azure-msal-browser-*.json**: Beachball changefile for patch
release with PR link
[#8132](#8132)
- **lib/msal-browser/docs/iframe-usage.md**: Added documentation in the
"Browser restrictions" section explaining Chrome 142+ Local Network
Access Restrictions and how MSAL addresses them
## Technical Details
```typescript
function createHiddenIframe(): HTMLIFrameElement {
const authFrame = document.createElement("iframe");
// ... existing attributes ...
authFrame.setAttribute("allow", "local-network-access *"); // Added
document.body.appendChild(authFrame);
return authFrame;
}
```
This replicates PR #8128 changes to the msal-v5 branch. The test was
adapted to match msal-v5's function signature (4 parameters vs 5 in
dev).
## Documentation
Added to `iframe-usage.md`:
- Chrome 142+ enables Local Network Access Restrictions by default
- This affects `ssoSilent()` when the iframe needs to access
authorization servers on local networks
- MSAL includes the `allow="local-network-access *"` iframe attribute to
address this restriction
- Users may still need to consent to local network access in their
browser, but the authentication flow will no longer timeout
