Details

(I accidentally submitted too quickly)

CORP is a HTTP header that allows an origin to specify what third party origins are allowed to use resources it serves (such as stylesheets, images, script files, etc.)  It is analogous to X-FRAME-OPTIONS.  

If an origin attempts to embed resources whose From-Origin indicates it is not allowed to, the browser will mimic a network error (or something similar).

It assists in Fission Security by providing websites a way to opt-in to protecting their non-document resources from potential disclosure via a Spectre attack.  (CORB is an on-by-default mechanism to protect the document resources.)
