"Mind the CORS" (2023) – IEEE-TPS 2023
Authors: Matteo Golinelli, Elham Arshad, Dmytro Kashchuk, and Bruno Crispo
Presented at the 5th IEEE International Conference on Trust, Privacy and Security in Intelligent Systems and Applications (TPS-ISA). This study conducted a large-scale analysis of Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) configurations across the Tranco Top 50k websites, revealing security flaws in 29.4% of them. The research highlights critical risks, including Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, emphasizing the real-world exploitability of these vulnerabilities.📄 Read the full paper: IEEE Xplore
