AI-suggested
Upgrade hono to version 4.12.25 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. There is no official remediation level stated beyond this fix. Patch status is confirmed by the version update. Until patched, avoid using credentials: true with the default wildcard origin in CORS middleware configurations.
Description
Hono is a Web application framework that provides support for any JavaScript runtime. Prior to 4.12.25, with credentials: true and no explicit origin (the default wildcard), the CORS Middleware reflects the request's Origin and sends Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true. Any site can then make credentialed cross-origin requests and read the responses, exposing cookie-authenticated endpoints to arbitrary origins. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.12.25.
