Abstract

This document defines the concept of an origin, which represents a web principal. Typically, user agents isolate content retrieved from different origins to prevent a malicious web site operator from interfering with the operation of benign web sites. In particular, this document defines how to compute an origin from a URI, how to serialize an origin to a string, and an HTTP header, named Origin, for indicating which origin caused the user agent to issue a particular HTTP request.
