CORS: wildcard origin with credentials allowed

highCode regexcorsCWE-942js

What it detects

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * combined with Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true is insecure (and ignored by browsers, usually silently). Use an explicit origin list.

How it runs

Applied line-by-line via a tagged regex with language-specific gating. Comments are skipped. Designed for high-confidence patterns where AST parsing would be overkill.
