did you updated the chromedriver too? because some new chrome versions require new chromedriver version to work — dey, Mar 25 '23 at 18:12
Yes, The recommended latest chrome driver version **"ChromeDriver 111.0.5563.64"** only I'm using from https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads . My Current Local chrome browser was upgraded to **"111.0.5563.111"** — Nantha, Mar 26 '23 at 01:34

Related to your question How to add "--remote-allow-origins=*" to chrome.additional.capabilities you can try following:

{"browserName":"chrome","goog:chromeOptions":{"args":["--remote-allow-origins=*"]}}

To generate json for any capability/options object, you can use following snippet.

public static void main(String[] args) {
        ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
        //set required options
        chromeOptions.addArguments("--remote-allow-origins=*");
        //print it and use it as capabilities
        System.out.println(JSONUtil.toString(chromeOptions.asMap()));
}
