Subresource Integrity Protection doesn't work in Chrome

Question

I added integrity and crossorigin tags to my scripts according to Subresource Integrity , but now they give an error in the console saying

Script from origin ' http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com ' has been blocked from loading by Cross-Origin Resource Sharing policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin ' http://localhost:81 ' is therefore not allowed access.

Here is the script:

<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js" 
  integrity="sha256-5xwrIw3xU3VvipjVMZNyf6+27C/a1Pxl3U0jl3hTcao=" 
  crossorigin="anonymous"></script> <!-- Banner --> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:728px;height:90px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3346556035533863" data-ad-slot="8052306231"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script>

Here is the derivation:

$ curl -s http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js | openssl dgst -sha256 -binary | openssl base64 -A
5xwrIw3xU3VvipjVMZNyf6+27C/a1Pxl3U0jl3hTcao=

I also added the attributes to an Amazon script, and that fails too.

Script from origin ' http://s3.amazonaws.com ' has been blocked from loading by Cross-Origin Resource Sharing policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin ' http://localhost:81 ' is therefore not allowed access.

<script async="async" type="text/javascript" src="//s3.amazonaws.com/cc.silktide.com/cookieconsent.latest.min.js" 
integrity="sha256-/8egBZx4+UIzXH8il2CNdL5+npDYgoAsjC76KHO/re4=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

Chrome supports SRI: http://enable-cors.org/client.html , https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/6183089948590080

I verified the hash is generating correctly using the example in the specifications: http://www.w3.org/TR/SRI/#integrity-metadata

So why isn't it working? It works without the two new attributes.

I think it was because the server did not specifically allow CORS, so Chrome blocked it. Silktide cookie script moved to Cloudflare, which explicitly does have Access-Control-Allow-Origin , so now it works. I don't know why the browser would care whether the server allows cross-origin scripts or not. It seems that as long as the hashes match it doesn't really matter where it comes from.
