[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 ## References - Upstream PR: #8128 - Chrome Feature: [Local Network Access](https://chromestatus.com/feature/5152728072060928) - Related Issue: #8100 > [!WARNING] > > *This pull request was created as a result of the following prompt from Copilot chat.* > Replicate the changes from PR #8128 (Add local-network-access iframe attribute for Chrome 142+ compatibility) so that they target the msal-v5 branch instead of dev.
