New Can I Trust Test Case: Browser returns secret out of pre-cached response in a CORS-Request
A new Can I Trust Test Case ist available.
This time the topic is the following:

What is CanITrust.in?
Browsers nowadays have a lot of built-in security features to help make the web more safe by default.
