Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
This module is deprecated, install Helmet instead and use its built-in cross-origin resource policy support.
Cross-origin-resource-policy is a small security module that has been folded into a larger project called Helmet. Rather than existing as its own standalone package, its code now lives inside the Helmet repository, so anyone looking for it should head there instead. In its original form, this module helped web developers set a security header that tells browsers which other websites are allowed to load resources like images, fonts, or scripts from your site. This kind of protection matters because without it, a malicious site could potentially embed your resources in ways you didn't intend. Helmet, the project it now belongs to, is a popular toolkit that bundles together many of these browser security headers into one convenient package, so it makes sense that this piece was absorbed there. The README doesn't go into further detail beyond pointing readers to the Helmet repository. Developers who were using this module on its own would now find it as part of Helmet's broader set of protections, and the migration is essentially a matter of switching to the combined package. This consolidation is a common pattern in open-source projects: when a standalone tool becomes one piece of a larger, related toolkit, maintaining it separately stops making sense. For anyone who relied on this module, the Helmet repository is where they'll find the current code, documentation, and any future updates.
A deprecated security module that set browser headers controlling which websites can load your images, fonts, and scripts. Its code has been merged into the Helmet toolkit, use Helmet instead.
