GHSA-g27j-74fp-xfpr
Insecure default value for CORS configuration
Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
The default value for the `CORS_ENABLED` and `CORS_ORIGIN` configuration was set to be very permissive by default. This could lead to unauthorized access in uncontrolled environments when the configuration hasn't been changed.
### Patches
The default values for CORS have been changed in https://github.com/directus/directus/pull/12022 which is released under 9.7.0
### Workarounds
Configure the CORS environment variables to match your project's usage, rather than leaving them at the (permissive) defaults.
