Description

we are disabling web security while running application in local containerized environment. As a result, firefox does not support execution of Cypress script and displays cross origin error. Following is the cypress issue ticket.
https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/6629

We also tried by disabling chromewebsecurity and security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy to false but still getting the same error

Start by reproducing the Cypress scripts in the local containerized environment with Firefox, then compare the cross-origin failure with Cypress issue 6629. Done means the Firefox Cypress run completes without the reported cross-origin error while preserving the local environment's required security behavior.
