Safari Websocket Connection Problems in iframe - endless reload

I have an app where we allow parts of the app to be embedded into other pages. This all works in Chrome, Firefox but not in Safari. In Safari we see an endless reload of the iframe. In the console we don’t get any error or warning. We’ve set CSP policies frame-ancestors and connect-src for both the app itself and the embedding frame.

The websocket connection join request fails with

 {response: {reason: "stale"}, status: "error"} 

The app itself works properly in Safari (and all other browsers) only embedded in Safari causes this error.

The reason is the default behaviour of safari, iframes and cookies. It blocks third-party-cookies in iframes. (Prevent Cross-Site Tracking)

You can test it by visiting your site, where the broken iframe is included. Then go to safari preferences → privacy and uncheck the “Website-Tracking“ checkbox. Your app will work fine afterwards.

Thats no solution, just for verifying the reason.
