Cascade Set CORS to Allow All Origins
CORS configuration is too permissive after Cascade set it to allow all origins ('*'). This is a security vulnerability that allows any website to make requests to your API, potentially accessing user data through browser-based attacks like CSRF.
Cascade likely used wildcard to 'fix' CORS issues without understanding security implications.
Error Messages You Might See
CORS policy: Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
CORS security configuration too permissive
Wildcard CORS allows all origins
Common Causes
- Cascade added .allowedOrigins("*") to permit all domains
- CORS configuration allows all HTTP methods and headers
- allowCredentials=true with wildcard origins (security violation)
How to Fix It
Restrict CORS to specific allowed domains only. Specify exact origins: allowedOrigins("https://example.com", "https://app.example.com"). Be explicit about allowed methods (GET, POST) and headers. Never combine allowCredentials(true) with wildcard. Review CORS policy in WebSecurityConfig.

Caio Rodrigues
I'm a full-stack developer focused on building practical and scalable web applications. My main experience is with **React, TypeScript, and modern frontend architectures**, where I prioritize clean code, component reusability, and maintainable project structures.
I have strong experience working with **dynamic forms, state management (Redux / React Hook Form), and complex data-driven interfaces**. I enjoy solving real-world problems by turning ideas into reliable software that companies can actually use in their daily operations.
Beyond coding, I care about **software quality and architecture**, following best practices for componentization, code organization, and performance optimization.
I'm also comfortable working across the stack when needed, integrating APIs, handling business logic, and helping transform prototypes into production-ready systems.
My goal is always to deliver solutions that are **simple, efficient, and genuinely useful for the people using them.**

What's wrong with CORS wildcard?
Wildcard (*) allows any website to make requests. Combined with credentials, enables CSRF attacks.
How do I restrict CORS safely?
List specific allowed origins. Use allowCredentials(true) only with specific origins. Be explicit about methods/headers.
