Security: Disable anti-tracking Secret Window with inherited HSTS

Reported by gnh1...@gmail.com, Sep 16

Issue description

[Bug] Disable anti-tracking in secret window with inherited HSTS
​
Chrome version: 69.0.3497.92 (64bit)
OS: Windows 7
​
Description:
​
I have identified problems between secret window and HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security) functionality.
​
secret window provides tracking protection.​
​However, it is used as a tool to disable the tracking prevention function in use with HSTS.
​
When I create a new secret window, HSTS should not be inherited. but, subsequent secret window allowed inheritance of HSTS.
​
This problem continued even after the window was closed.
​
I was able to use this to create a new user tracking method using Iframe and ajax.
​
Is it bug? I am waiting for a reply.
 
By "Secret Window" do you mean incognito? If so, please read our FAQ about Incognito's security guarantees: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/security/faq.md#what-are-the-security-and-privacy-guarantees-of-incognito-mode
Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
