Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key in go-zero
Packages

Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Summary
Hello go-zero maintainer team, I would like to report a security concerning your CORS Filter feature.
### Details
Go-zero allows user to specify a [CORS Filter](https://github.com/zeromicro/go-zero/blob/master/rest/internal/cors/handlers.go) with a configurable allows param - which is an array of domains allowed in CORS policy.
However, the `isOriginAllowed` uses `strings.HasSuffix` to check the origin, which leads to bypass via domain like `evil-victim.com`
```go
func isOriginAllowed(allows []string, origin string) bool {
for _, o := range allows {
if o == allOrigins {
return true
}
if strings.HasSuffix(origin, o) {
return true
}
}
return false
}
```
### PoC
Use code below as a PoC. Only requests from `safe.com` should bypass the CORS Filter
```go
package main
import (
"errors"
"net/http"
"github.com/zeromicro/go-zero/rest"
)
func main() {
svr := rest.MustNewServer(rest.RestConf{Port: 8888}, rest.WithRouter(mockedRouter{}), rest.WithCors("safe.com"))
svr.Start()
}
type mockedRouter struct{}
// some sensitive path
func (m mockedRouter) ServeHTTP(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
// check user's cookie
// ...
// return sensitive data
w.Write([]byte("social_id: 420101198008292930"))
}
func (m mockedRouter) Handle(_, _ string, handler http.Handler) error {
return errors.New("foo")
}
func (m mockedRouter) SetNotFoundHandler(_ http.Handler) {
}
func (m mockedRouter) SetNotAllowedHandler(_ http.Handler) {
}
```
Send a request to localhost:8888 with `Origin:not-safe.com`
You can see the origin reflected in response, which bypass the CORS Filter

### Impact
This vulnerability is capable of breaking CORS policy and thus allowing any page to make requests, retrieve data on behalf of other users.
