I was just grepping through the commit log, and it appears that bug 746978 added nontrivial usage of enablePrivilege. That API is dangerous and deprecated, and per jst's decree new code may not add usage of enablePrivilege. So it looks like Ian's on the hook for fixing the tests. ;-) The replacement API is SpecialPowers. Let me know if you need any help with it. :-)

Thanks for catching this, Bobby - I'll clean it up ASAP, I already modified a bunch of the other CSP tests to use SpecialPowers so this should be straight forward, I hope.

We should probably just clean up all the CSP tests and have them use SpecialPowers everywhere while we're at it.
Depends on: 865204
Martijn cleaned up almost all of this in his patch for bug 865204 (hooray!) there is one remaining EnablePrivilege that he (and I previously) had trouble resolving using SpecialPowers.wrap. In file_CSP_frameancestors.sjs and file_CSP_frameancestors_spec_compliant.sjs we do: response.write('netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalXPConnect");'); if (query['double']) response.write('window.parent.parent.parent.frameLoaded("' + query['scriptedreport'] + '",' + 'window.location.toString());'); else response.write('window.parent.parent.frameLoaded("' + query['scriptedreport'] + '", ' + 'window.location.toString());'); it looks from the tests like we're using enablePrivilege to get around same origin. Martijn tried to use wrap() here, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865204#c13 : "I also tried to use SpecialPowers.wrap(window).parent.parent.parent.frameLoaded in file_CSP_frameancestors_spec_compliant.sjs . With that, I got this error: Error: TypeError: SpecialPowers.wrap(...).parent.parent.parent.frameLoaded is not a function Source File: http://example.com/tests/content/base/test/file_CSP_frameancestors_spec_compliant.sjs?double=1&scriptedreport=abb_allow_spec_compliant Line: 1" We could work around the need for privilege here by reworking the test to use postMessage, I think. I'll take a stab at that when I can.

I want ahead and used the postMessage thing on those .sjs files. I hope that's ok, Ian. This seems to work fine.
