# 0.17.7

ReleasedReleased on October 11, 2016

**Features:**

-   There is now a new [`chromeWebSecurity`](/app/references/configuration#Browser) option you can set in `cypress.json` to turn off Chrome's Web Security features. We've written a brand new reference that details why and how you could use this. Cypress Web Security. This option can be used for accessing `cross origin` `<iframes>` or if your application needs to test navigation across super domains. Fixes [#262](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/262).
    

**Bugfixes:**

-   We now capture `cross origin` errors correctly instead of these showing as `Uncaught DOMExceptions` in the console. Fixes [#261](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/261).
    
-   We no longer trash the wrong folder on OSX in-app updates (when a project is open). Sorry about this! Fixes [#260](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/260).
    
-   [`cy.visit()`](/api/commands/visit) urls with domain-like segments (which weren't actually the domain) no longer cause Cypress to think you're trying to navigate to a different superdomain. Fixes [#255](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/255).
