Teleport App to App CORS error

[JoeSpiral]

Expected behavior:
Teleport would proxy requests from one app to another without CORS error.

Current behavior:
Currently we are getting the following CORS error:

Access to fetch at 'https://test-auth.teleport.test.us/v2/test/auth' from origin 'https://test.teleport.test.us' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled.

Bug details:

• Teleport version: 17.0.5

• Recreation steps
  Hitting the test app hits an AWS Amplify endpoint and works without issue. This then produces a login page. The actual authentication hits the test-auth app which redirects to a backend service that does SAML auth. It never gets that far. The browser kills it with the error above. Preflight does work though. I have no issues turning off CORS for these apps if possible and the easiest way forward.

The actual authentication hits the test-auth app which redirects to a backend service that does SAML auth. It never gets that far. The browser kills it with the error above.

It looks like you've correctly configured allowed_origins for the test-auth app. Can you share the response to the preflight request? Is the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header present?
