+# Subresource loading with Web Bundles: Support opaque origin iframes
+
+Last updated: Apr 2021
+
+This is an extension to [Subresource loading with Web Bundles]. This extension
+allows a bundle to include `urn:uuid:` URL resources, which will be used to
+create an opaque origin iframe.
+
+## Goals
+
+Support the use case of
+[WebBundles for Ad Serving](https://github.com/WICG/webpackage/issues/624).
+
+## Extension to [Subresource loading with Web Bundles]
+
+In this section, _the explainer_ means the [Subresource loading with Web
+Bundles] explainer.
+
+### Allow `urn:uuid:` resources
+
+In addition to the same origin subresource explained in the
+[`<link>`-based API](https://github.com/WICG/webpackage/blob/main/explainers/subresource-loading.md#link-based-api)
+section in the explainer, this extension allows a bundle to include a
+[`urn:uuid:`](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4122) URL subresource.
+
+### Opaque origin iframes
+
+If a `<iframe>`'s `src` attribute is a `urn:uuid:` URL subresource in the
+bundle, the iframe must be instantiated as an
+[opaque origin](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/origin.html#concept-origin-opaque)
+iframe.
+
+## Example
+
+### The bundle
+
+Suppose that the bundle, `subresources.wbn`, includes the following resources:
+
+```
+- urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6
+- … (omitted)
+```
+
+### The main document
+
+```html
+<link
+  rel="webbundle"
+  href="https://example.com/dir/subresources.wbn"
+  resources="urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6"
+/>
+
+<iframe src="urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6"></iframe>
+```
+
+`urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6` is loaded from the bundle, and a
+subframe is instantiated as an
+[opaque origin](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/origin.html#concept-origin-opaque)
+iframe.
+
+Note:
+
+- `urn:uuid:` resource must be explicitly specified in `resources` attribute in
+  `<link>` elements, similar to other subresources. `scopes` attribute can be
+  also used for `urn:uuid:` resources. For example, `scopes=urn:` allows all
+  `urn:` resources.
+
+### Content Security Policy (CSP)
+
+To allow `urn:uuid` resources in CSP, the `urn:` scheme must be explicitly
+specified. "`*`" source expression does not match `urn:uuid` resources according
+to the CSP's
+[matching rule](https://w3c.github.io/webappsec-csp/#match-url-to-source-expression).
+
+For example, given this CSP header,
+
+```
+Content-Security-Policy: script-src https://example.com/script/ urn:; frame-src *
+```
+
+In the following, the first and third `<script>` will be loaded, and the second
+`<script>` and the `<iframe>` will be blocked:
+
+```
+<link rel="webbundle"
+  href="https://example.com/subresources.wbn"
+  resources="https://example.com/script/a.js
+             https://example.com/b.js
+             urn:uuid:429fcc4e-0696-4bad-b099-ee9175f023ae
+             urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6"
+/>
+
+<script src=”https://example.com/script/a.js”></script>
+<script src=”https://example.com/b.js”></script>
+<script src=”urn:uuid:429fcc4e-0696-4bad-b099-ee9175f023ae”></script>
+<iframe src="urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6"></iframe>
+```
