LinkedIn OAUTH localhost does not work with "Failed to get unsafe" X-CDN "header

Question

It seems like it just started this week with no code or configuration changes on my side - the OAUTH connect / login api connection in my localhost node app is the console error in the browser:

Refused to get unsafe header "X-CDN" https://static.licdn.com/scds/concat/common/js?h={GIANT_HASH...}:6 

I cannot reproduce this on a public DNS site with the same code as only localhost. any clues?

Answer 1

Visiting the link directly gives me the same error in the console. I don’t think this is what you are doing wrong, it seems like their problem.
