memos CORS Misconfiguration in server.go (GHSL-2024-034)
CVE-2024-41659GHSA-p4fx-qf2h-jpmj
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (github.com/usememos/memos 0.21.0), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
memos is a privacy-first, lightweight note-taking service. A CORS misconfiguration exists in memos 0.20.1 and earlier where an arbitrary origin is reflected with Access-Control-Allow-Credentials set to true. This may allow an attacking website to make a cross-origin request, allowing the attacker to read private information or make privileged changes to the system as the vulnerable user account.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2024-41659 Advisory: memos CORS Misconfiguration in server.go (GHSL-2024-034) IDs: CVE-2024-41659, GHSA-p4fx-qf2h-jpmj Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2024-41659 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 15:04 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: High (CVSS 8.6) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: github.com/usememos/memos 0.21.0. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - Go github.com/usememos/memos: affected < 0.21.0; fixed in 0.21.0 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - Go github.com/usememos/memos: check the installed version with your package manager. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on github.com/usememos/memos. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-p4fx-qf2h-jpmj (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-p4fx-qf2h-jpmj lists affected ranges: Go github.com/usememos/memos >=0 <0.21.0) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
