[johnykes]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

OS/Web Information

• Web Browser: Brave
• Local OS: Windows 11
• Remote OS: Ubuntu 24
• Remote Architecture: amd
• code-server --version: latest

Steps to Reproduce

1. create a code-server using docker-compose on a ubuntu server

services:
  code-server:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/code-server:latest
    # image: linuxserver/code-server:latest
    container_name: code-server
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Etc/UTC
      - PASSWORD=password #optional
      - HASHED_PASSWORD= #optional
      - SUDO_PASSWORD=password #optional
      - SUDO_PASSWORD_HASH= #optional
      - DEFAULT_WORKSPACE=/config/workspace #optional
    privileged: true
    extra_hosts:
      - "host.docker.internal:host-gateway"
    volumes:
      - ./data/template/config:/config
    ports:
      - 8443:8443
    restart: unless-stopped

2. add HTTPS/SSL using CF tunnels / traefik or something
3. create a simple web page with an iframe that has src="your code-server url"

if I deploy the webpage with the same iframe on Vercel or something, it login works, but doesn't work from localhost. Why? That's annoying

Expected

I expect to see the code-server content in the iframe, even if I'm on localhost.

Are you accessing code-server over a secure context?

• I am using a secure context.

Notes

Is there any setting for CORS on the code-server?
