I’ve recently started getting CORB warnings in Chrome. Here are the logs:
xhr.js:178 Cross-Origin Read Blocking (CORB) blocked cross-origin response https://my.api.mockaroo.com/collection/5?key=0000000 with MIME type text/plain. See https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5629709824032768 for more details.
From the Chrome page:
Cross-Origin Read Blocking (CORB)
Security
Cross-Origin Read Blocking (CORB) is an algorithm that can identify and block dubious cross-origin resource loads in web browsers before they reach the web page. CORB reduces the risk of leaking sensitive data by keeping it further from cross-origin web pages. In most browsers, it keeps such data out of untrusted script execution contexts. In browsers with Site Isolation, it can keep such data out of untrusted renderer processes entirely, helping even against side channel attacks like Spectre.
