Error during WebSocket handshake: Unexpected response code: 403

I have implemented WebSockets with Spring Boot Application and have the below error message when trying to test the ws connection with the chrome extension 'Smart websocket client'. However, I have no problem when run the Spring Boot Application locally.

WebSocket connection to 'ws://192.168.X.XYZ:8080/test' failed: 
Error during WebSocket handshake: Unexpected response code: 403

The only difference which I see is in the Request headers:

In the one it works - Origin:http://192.168.X.XYZ:8080

In the one it does not work - Origin:chrome-extension://omalebghpgejjiaoknljcfmglgbpocdp

What I did in the WebSocketConfig class is below:

@Override
public void registerWebSocketHandlers(WebSocketHandlerRegistry registry) {
    registry.addHandler(myHandler(), "/test").setAllowedOrigins("http://192.168.X.XYZ:8080");
}

and still does not work.

Could you please advise what the reason for that error might be and how to fix it?

Thank you in advance.

On update to spring boot 2.4, it also requires:

@Bean
public WebMvcConfigurer corsConfigurer() {
    return new WebMvcConfigurer() {
        @Override
        public void addCorsMappings(CorsRegistry registry) {
            registry.addMapping("/**").allowedOrigins("*");
        }
    };
}

and @EnableAutoConfiguration on the config class.

You need to configure your "chrome-extension://..." origin as an allowed origin or even "*", otherwise it's rejected by the server.
