Content-Security-Policy: frame-src directive
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since August 2016.
The HTTP Content-Security-Policy (CSP)
frame-src directive specifies valid sources for nested
browsing contexts loading using elements such as <frame> and
<iframe>.
Note:
frame-src allows you to specify where iframes in a page may be loaded from.
This differs from frame-ancestors, which allows you to specify what parent source may embed a page.

If this directive is absent, the user agent will look for the
child-src directive (which falls back to the
default-src directive).
