This is to prevent malicious scripts to attack bad behaving proxies. For more information about the importance of good masking, - see \l {http://w2spconf.com/2011/papers/websocket.pdf}. + see \l {"Talking to Yourself for Fun and Profit" by Lin-Shung Huang et al}. The default mask generator uses the cryptographically insecure qrand() function. The best measure against attacks mentioned in the document above, is to use QWebSocket over a secure connection (\e wss://). |
