This seems to be a variant of https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/13641 however here we are on a trusted API port (45004) that tries to fetch the image from the trusted Gateway port (45083).

This is a pretty safe environment, as both Origins are controlled by Brave (brave runs go-ipfs binary, which exposes those ports)

I think the right way of fixing this class of bugs is to allow API port to fetch data from local Gateway.
