CVE-2026-69207: Hono: ReDoS in CORS middleware via Access-Control-Request-Headers

August 3, 2026

The built-in CORS middleware (hono/cors) parses the attacker-controlled Access-Control-Request-Headers request header during a preflight (OPTIONS) request using a regular expression whose running time is quadratic in the input length. A single request carrying a long run of whitespace can consume seconds of CPU, and repeated requests can render the service unresponsive. This parsing runs under the default configuration.
