QUESTION
In MDN HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), it has an example of HSTS settings as below
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-07 at 18:45Preload is a big commitment. It will effectively be hardcoded into a browser’s code. Given it takes several months at a minimum to roll out new version, it’s basically irreversible.
Also as it’s down at the domain level, mistakes have been made. For example preloading domain.com but covering that blog.domain.com, or intranet.domain.com have not been upgraded to HTTPS. At this point your options are 1) upgrade side to HTTPS and live with zero users to the site until the or 2) reverse the preload and wait the months for that to roll out to all browsers and deal with zero users until then.
HTTPS is much more common now, so the risks are reduced but when HSTS preload first came out, these were real risks.
Therefore the preload
attribute was a signal that the site owner was ready for that commitment. It also prevent someone else submitting a site that wasn’t using this header (whether maliciously or with good, but misguided, intentions).
You are correct in that it doesn’t “do” anything in the browser.
There was also talk of checking if the preload header was still being sent, and if not removing the preload but not sure if that’s done.
QUESTION
I have this website set up:
http://website1.com/ - returns 301 Moved Permanently
and redirects to http://www.website1.com/.
http://www.website1.com/ - returns 301 Moved Permanently
and redirects to https://www.website2.com/.
https://www.website2.com/ - returns 200 OK
and has this in the response:
strict-transport-security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
I have this subdomain running a web app: https://subdomain.website1.com/ This also has the following header in the response:
Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
I want to have preload functionality for all sub domains of website1.com/. However, I get the following errors when checking eligibility:
...ANSWER

This is your issue. http://website1.com should redirect to https://website1.com then on to https://www.website1.com.
This way the top level website1.com domain will pick up the HSTS header and protect itself and all sub domains (assuming it has includeSubDomains
attribute set - which is a pre-requisite for preloading).
Without switching to HTTPS first, or if you skip straight to https://www.website1.com then the browser will never see the HSTS header on the top level domain and so know that it (and all sub domains) should be protected by HSTS. This is 1) less secure and 2) more risky when preloading as maybe you still have a non-HTTPS site (e.g. http://blog.website1.com or http://intranet.website1.com). By forcing you to set this up before you preload it, will hopefully surface those issues, when it’s still possible to reverse HSTS (which is basically impossible after its preloaded into browser’s source code - at least for many months anyway).
And the risk of accidentally locking out a non-HTTPS subdomain with preload is one reason I’ve argued in the past that preload is potentially more risky than useful, and overkill for most sites. But with HTTPS becoming the norm, I’m less against it now. Still think it’s a bit overkill except for high target sites though.
Btw for the first error, make sure HSTS header is included on 301 redirects. For Apache for example you need always set
rather than just set
