## Affected

- getgrav grav-plugin-api: fixed in 1.0.0-rc.16

## Description

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.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on getgrav grav-plugin-api, upgrade to a fixed version (1.0.0-rc.16) per the references below.
