This directory implements permission and user consent checks for the browser side of socket opening for the Direct Sockets API.

Examples of the checks include

  • user dialog, allowing user to enter destination address
  • permissions policy
  • rate limiting
  • checking hostnames resolve to public addresses
  • content security policy

When requests to establish TCP or UDP communication have passed the various checks, they are forwarded to the network service.
