The IESG has received a request from the Web Security WG (websec) to
consider the following document:
- 'HTTP Header Field X-Frame-Options'
  <draft-ietf-websec-x-frame-options-07.txt> as Informational RFC

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the

Abstract


   To improve the protection of web applications against Clickjacking,
   this specification describes the X-Frame-Options HTTP response header
   field that declares a policy communicated from the server to the
   client browser on whether the browser may display the transmitted
   content in frames that are part of other web pages.  This
   informational document serves to document the existing use and
   specification of this X-Frame-Options HTTP response header field.
