Problem

The Amul Pashudhan app (Prompt Dairy Tech) embeds the chat UI returned by GET /api/auth/webview-url in an iframe/webview from:

  1. http(s)://www.amulpashudhan.com/
  2. https://ahsupportqaauth.orbitron.in/

The framed load fails with net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_RESPONSE (reported in the "Please do needful..." email thread, open since 2026-05-28).

Root cause

Nothing in our stack sets an anti-framing header — the OAN-UI container nginx, the dev nginx-gateway, and prod ingress-nginx are all clean. The Barracuda WaaS cloud WAF fronting amulai.in / dev.amulai.in (CNAME → app923823.prod.cudawaas.com) injects X-FRAME-OPTIONS: SAMEORIGIN on every response, which blocks all cross-origin framing.

Fix

Extend the existing CSP frame-ancestors directive in nginx.conf to allowlist the two partner origins. Per the CSP spec, when frame-ancestors is present browsers ignore X-Frame-Options, so this neutralizes the WAF-injected header without a Barracuda policy change. Both http:// and https:// schemes are listed for amulpashudhan.com since the partner's embed page scheme is unconfirmed (host-sources without a scheme only match https when the resource is served over https).

Risk / validation

  • Framing remains blocked for every origin except 'self' and the two partners.
  • Residual risk: the WAF could strip the response CSP header. Validate after dev deploy with curl -sI https://dev.amulai.in/ (CSP header must survive), then have Prompt Dairy retest from ahsupportqaauth.orbitron.in before promoting.
  • Note for promotion: amul-prod carries the bare nginx.conf (no CSP block), so a straight cherry-pick will conflict — prod should get a minimal add_header Content-Security-Policy "frame-ancestors ..." always; commit rather than inheriting main's full CSP.

Pre-commit lint bypassed: repo-wide eslint fails on pre-existing unused-var errors in src/hooks/store/chat/index.ts from the weather-advisory merge — unrelated to this nginx-only change.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The Pashudhan app (Prompt Dairy Tech) loads the chat UI returned by
/api/auth/webview-url inside an iframe/webview from
www.amulpashudhan.com and ahsupportqaauth.orbitron.in. The Barracuda
WaaS in front of amulai.in injects X-FRAME-OPTIONS: SAMEORIGIN, which
blocks the framed load (net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_RESPONSE). Per the CSP
spec, a frame-ancestors directive supersedes X-Frame-Options in
browsers, so extending the allowlist here neutralizes the WAF header
without a WAF policy change.

Closing — fix will be applied at the gateway/ingress layer instead of the app container.
