Description

Environment

Windows 10
Chrome 67.0.3396.99 (Official Build) (64-bit)
ABP 3.1.0.2069 (cannot reproduce it in the 3.1 stable)
EasyList
AA

How to reproduce

  1. Open the ABP dev panel
  2. Go to https://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2018/07/16/apple-ios-11-4-1-apps-app-store-update-upgrade-iphone-ipad-problem-ios12/ (might need to refresh once after accepting the consent message)

Observed behaviour

There are blocked ping requests like https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pcs/activeview?xai=SOMESTRING within the https://tpc.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-29/html/container.html?n=1 iframe.

Expected behaviour

Everything within that iframe should be whitelisted due to this rule: @@https://$document,sitekey=MFwwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEBBQADSwAwSAJBAMLlOP3Rke738aeqtDCGp0IgSY5XBv7c+brDMmurbYvOFgakGw6sUG8fwt6VkjnOX9s9Kba1Drg2M9Bye/F3x7MCAwEAAQ

Notes

I tried to reproduce this together with Thomas on Ubuntu but there were no blocked requests like in my screenshot on Windows.

Any chance you can try and reproduce this for me Geo? I'm having trouble reproducing it myself, as the issue mentions it might require Windows.

I ask since this is possible a regression since the last release. If you can reproduce the problem, please could you try bisecting (using git bisect or similar) to figure out which commit introduced it?

IIRC, requests of the type ping are not associated with any tab (in Chrome), so that Adblock Plus wouldn't know which document caused the request and whether it is whitelisted. However, starting with Chrome 63 the request details include an initiator property we fall back to as a workaround (#6543), which I assume is why it can no longer be reproduced with Adblock Plus >=3.1.

I can still reproduce it with the latest dev build (3.2.0.2101).

I still can't reproduce this with Chrome 68 and unpacked equivalent of Adblock Plus 3.2.0.2101 on Debian Buster, nor on Windows 10 (1709). I don't see the https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pcs/activeview?xai=SOMESTRING request being made, let alone being blocked. I'm checking both in the Adblock Plus pane, and the network pane of the developer tools.
