CORS configuration opportunity
Properly configuring Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) is essential for securing web applications against unauthorized data access. When the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header is set to *, any domain can request and receive responses, potentially exposing sensitive information to attackers. This presents an opportunity to strengthen security by implementing a controlled allowlist of trusted domains or disabling CORS where it is not required. Ensuring a secure CORS setup helps protect private content while maintaining seamless access for authorized users.
