Token theft via unrestricted CORS policy
Published Apr 20, 2026 · Updated Apr 20, 2026
Permissive CORS in Erick Christian Copilot API 0.1 through 0.7.0 allows remote attackers to read access tokens from the Token endpoint. In src/server.ts, server.use(cors()) applies Hono's unrestricted default CORS policy globally, including to the unauthenticated /token route. Exposure requires that route to be network-reachable; a hostile origin can read its response and use the disclosed token for unauthorized Copilot API access.
