Comment (by swissspidy):

 Non-whitelisted embeds come with some security restrictions. I guess
 browsers don't send a referrer header in that case.

 To fix this, CodePen should either remove that requirement or we need to
 whitelist them. See #27658.

 Note that some people choose to not send referrers anyway, so even
 whitelisting doesn't help.
