Description

Waku’s RSC request dispatcher invokes server actions without validating the request’s Origin (or Sec-Fetch-Site) header. A cross-origin web attacker can therefore cause a victim browser to issue an authenticated POST to a registered server action endpoint using a CORS-safelisted content type (text/plain), which does not trigger a preflight.

Recommendation

Update the waku package to the latest compatible version. Followings are version details:

  • Affected version(s): <= 1.0.0-beta.0
  • Patched version(s): 1.0.0-beta.1
