Scenario:
1. make a request to file:///etc/passwd to grab its content (GET with
XMLHttpRequest, or loading it in an iframe)
2. make a cross-site request (XMLHttpRequest with CORS, or simply a
<form>, or even a <script>, <img> or <iframe> with the payload given
in the query-string) to another server with the content retrieved in
step #1

Chrome makes step #1 fail in all cases, contrary to other browsers.
