Summary

Hono is a Web application framework that provides support for any JavaScript runtime. Prior to 4.13.16, csrf() limits origin validation to the content types normally sent by HTML forms and therefore does not validate text/ping requests generated by Chromium hyperlink auditing. Chrome and Edge can send a cross-origin credentialed POST without a CORS preflight through an <a ping> action, and the middleware then skips both Origin and Sec-Fetch-Site checks. The fixed request body limits exploitation to state-changing endpoints whose effect is selected by the path or query string and does not depend on submitted body data. The user's cookie must accompany the request, which generally requires a same-site origin or a cookie configured with SameSite=None, and Firefox does not send hyperlink-auditing pings by default. This issue is fixed in version 4.13.16.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

The maintainers of honojs/hono published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.
