DisCORS: A Chrome Extension for Security Header Management
DisCORS is a Chrome extension designed to disable common security headers such as CORS, CSP, and X-FRAME-OPTIONS for specified websites. This tool allows users to selectively bypass security measures, facilitating experimentation and development tasks. Users can either activate or deactivate the extension based on their needs, providing flexibility in managing browser security settings.
The extension operates in two modes: ACTIVATED and DEACTIVATED. In ACTIVATED mode, DisCORS modifies or removes chosen security headers for targeted sites, allowing access to resources that may otherwise be restricted. Users can specify a list of target sites or choose to apply changes across all sites. However, it is important to note that disabling HTTP security headers is not recommended and should only be done at the user's own risk.
