Current behavior

Hi,
when I run my test case with Chrome in Cypress, it reports the following error.

(uncaught exception)SecurityError: Failed to enumerate the properties of 'Storage': access is denied for this document.
(xhr)POST 201 http://localhost:3004/auth/getCurrentUser

It has been working well for months, and from yesterday this error happened.

From the first day of the testing code, chromeWebSecurity has been set as false.

export default defineConfig({
  chromeWebSecurity: false,

For "Third-party cookies" in the Chrome setting, it is the default option "Block third-party cookies in Incognito mode"; I have tried to set it as "Allow third-party cookies", but Cypress still reported the same error.

Desired behavior

No response

Test code to reproduce

The error happened after the code clicked the Login button of my local website.

cy.login(username, password, organizationName);

Cypress.Commands.add('login', (username, password, organizationName) => {
  new LoginPage()
    .setOrganizationNameField(organizationName)
    .setEmailField(username)
    .setPasswordField(password)
    .clickOnLoginButton();
});

    clickOnLoginButton(): this {
        cy.xpath(this.LoginButton).click();
        StepLogger.logStep("Click on login button" , async () => {
        })
        return this;
    }

@ecaijw

It looks like the following applies to your issue:

@cypress/xpath

@cypress/xpath has been deprecated and is no longer supported.

See https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/tree/develop/npm/xpath

@ecaijw Did your Chrome version change yesterday by chance? Chrome 132 went stable Jan 14. That may be related.

@ecaijw
Do you have allure report enabled? I get a similar error only with allure report enabled. allure-framework/allure-js#1222

[kalcefer]

@ecaijw
try to make a clean project. with a minimum number of steps
cy.visit(http://${Cypress.env("host")})
cy.clearLocalStorage()
cy.reload()
or
cy.visit(http://${Cypress.env("host")})

@ecaijw Did your Chrome version change yesterday by chance? Chrome 132 went stable Jan 14. That may be related.

@jennifer-shehane
I checked on the new version of the chrome 132 browser. the error is consistently reproducible.
