# Usercontent
While decryption itself is safe to be done without a sandbox,
letting the browser and user interact with the resulting data may be dangerous,
previously `usercontent.riot.im` was used to act as a sandbox on a different origin to close the attack surface,
it is now possible to do by using a combination of a sandboxed iframe and some code written into the app which consumes this SDK.
Usercontent is an iframe sandbox target for allowing a user to safely download a decrypted attachment from a sandboxed origin where it cannot be used to XSS your riot session out from under you.
Its function is to create an Object URL for the user/browser to use but bound to an origin different to that of the riot instance to protect against XSS.
It exposes a function over a postMessage API, when sent an object with the matching fields to render a download link with the Object URL:
```json5
{
"imgSrc": "", // the src of the image to display in the download link
"imgStyle": "", // the style to apply to the image
"style": "", // the style to apply to the download link
"download": "", // download attribute to pass to the <a/> tag
"textContent": "", // the text to put inside the download link
"blob": "", // the data blob to wrap in an object url and allow the user to download
}
```
If only imgSrc, imgStyle and style are passed then just update the existing link without overwriting other things about it.
It is expected that this target be available at `usercontent/` relative to the root of the app, this can be seen in riot-web's webpack config.

// The downside of using a second domain is that it complicates hosting,
// the downside of using a sandboxed iframe is that the browers are overly
// restrictive in what you are allowed to do with the generated URL.
//
// For now given how unusable the blobs generated in sandboxed iframes are we
// default to using a renderer hosted on "usercontent.riot.im". This is
// overridable so that people running their own version of the client can
// choose a different renderer.
//
// To that end the current version of the blob generation is the following
// html:
//
// <html><head><script>
// var params = window.location.search.substring(1).split('&');
// var lockOrigin;
// for (var i = 0; i < params.length; ++i) {
// var parts = params[i].split('=');
// if (parts[0] == 'origin') lockOrigin = decodeURIComponent(parts[1]);

//
// This waits to receive a message event sent using the window.postMessage API.
// When it receives the event it evals a javascript function in data.code and
// runs the function passing the event as an argument. This version adds
// support for a query parameter controlling the origin from which messages
// will be processed as an extra layer of security (note that the default URL
// is still 'v1' since it is backwards compatible).
//
// In particular it means that the rendering function can be written as a
// ordinary javascript function which then is turned into a string using
// toString().

Hello! If you're reading this, perhaps you're wondering what this
file is doing and why your Riot is using it.
In short, this allows Riot to isolate potentially unsafe encrypted
attachments into their own origin, away from your Riot.
Stay curious!
