Description

Hello,

i noticed that links between configured sites with different domains in the same TYPO3 system have not the rel="noreferrer" attribute. The target="_blank" is set.

I came to this because Lighthouse gave me the hint "Links to cross-origin destinations are unsafe".

My domains are completely different like: www.abc.com & www.yxz.net.

By further analyse i came to the addSecurityRelValues() and isInternalUrl() method in typo3/sysext/frontend/Classes/ContentObject/ContentObjectRenderer.php.
When i read correct: if the domain was found in the site configurations it's marked as "internal" domain (isInternalUrl()).

This was implemented by https://forge.typo3.org/issues/78488.

I think this is correct in few cases but not in the most.
I'm not sure but maybe a check of the 1st level domain of source domain and target domain is required here.

I think in most cases sending a referrer policy HTTP header is sufficient, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Referrer-Policy

Referrer-Policy: same-origin

We have it the other way around.

A customer has multiple domains and TYPO3 is not aware of all the domains as it doesn't manage those domains.
Still the customer wants to have info like referrer for internal domains.

I would guess an event within isInternalUrl() would help, as every installation could alter the original implementation to its needs. E.g. one could remove configured sites if they aren't the current active one. But one could also add further domains, e.g. from site config, extension config, etc.
