elysia-cors Origin Validation Error
CVE-2025-50864 · GHSA-f9qj-4c5x-cpcw
- Affected
- npm @elysiajs/cors < 1.3.1
- Fixed in
- 1.3.1· Vendor fix available
- Issue
- An Origin Validation Error in the elysia-cors library thru 1.3.0 allows attackers to bypass Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) restrictions. The library incorrectly validates the supplied origin by checking if it is a substring of any domain in the site's CORS policy, rather than performing an exact match. For example, a malicious origin like "notexample.com", "example.common.net" is whitelisted when the site's CORS policy specifies "example.com." This vulnerability enables unauthorized access to user data on sites using the elysia-cors library for CORS validation.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.3.1 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
