Re:Payment iframe - the easiest way to insert Stripe into yo... by tptacek on Monday August 13, 2012 @02:40PM (#4377357)
Again: "payment page" is besides the point. The JS bug just has to happen anywhere in the path a user would take to get to the payment page.

It sure does make the argument simpler to pretend that you can just keep the Olark and Typekit and Optimizer bugs off your payments page and call it a day, but that doesn't actually do anything to protect most sites. Engage instead with my actual argument, which is that for virtually every app using these services, bugging your front page with Olark is even more unsafe than this iframe is.
