ffi: fix converting cross origin windows to python #1537

Closed s-cork closed 9 months ago

s-cork commented 10 months ago

Advanced use case of the ffi module is to have an iframe in python and post messages to the iframe's contentWindow

When we access the contentWindow we try to convert this object to a python object. But we break the browser's same origin policy when we access properties like sk$object or $isPyWrapped when determining what type of object we are converting to python. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Same-origin_policy#window

This PR adds a check in the Proxy object lookup to determine if the attribute is a cross origin window object If it is, we shortcut the code and return a Proxy object rather than going through toPy.

I added tests that can be run in the browser But these tests won't run in a node environment
