Issues with generating link previews and editing images within Buffer
Degraded performance
View the incident

While setting up a new service to help us better detect issues in our product, some logic in this library added some URL handling code which caused CORs issues for our own implementations. This resulted in requests being blocked when trying to perform link shortening, along with image cropping/editing. Any users trying to access this functionality across any of our platforms would have experienced these issues

We are exploring ways to add some automated checks to prevent this from happening in future.
