CVE-2026-63407 PUBLISHED

Grav API Plugin: CORS 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *' on Authenticated API Responses

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 16.07.2026 Published: 19.08.2026 Updated: 19.08.2026

Grav API Plugin is a RESTful API for Grav CMS that provides full headless access to your site's content. Prior to 1.0.0-rc.16, the Grav API plugin CorsMiddleware returns Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * and permissive OPTIONS responses for authenticated /api/v1 endpoints. JavaScript from any origin can submit an attacker-obtained JWT through the Authorization or X-API-Token header, read the authenticated response, and perform write operations with the token owner's privileges, enabling data exfiltration and account modification. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.0-rc.16.
