CWE-942

Permissive Cross-domain Security Policy with Untrusted Domains

The product uses a web-client protection mechanism such as a Content Security Policy (CSP) or cross-domain policy file, but the policy includes untrusted domains with which the web client is allowed to communicate.

CVE-2026-8919 (GCVE-0-2026-8919)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-07-15 02:00 – Updated: 2026-07-15 12:34
VLAI
Summary
Permissive Cross-domain Security Policy with Untrusted Domains in ASUS GameSDK allows a remote user to obtain a local user’s NTLM hash by convincing the user to visit a crafted web page that sends a request containing a UNC path to the application’s local service endpoint. This can result in information disclosure or data tampering, may cause GameSDK to become unavailable, and may also enable access to the victim’s information on other services. Refer to the ' Security Update for ASUS GameSDK  ' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

CVE-2026-9739 (GCVE-0-2026-9739)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-05-27 21:38 – Updated: 2026-05-28 13:20
VLAI
Summary
Vulnerable to DNS rebinding attacks when using SSE (http://b/499408790). During the beta phase, we implemented `allowed-origins` and `allowed-hosts` flags to align with MCP security guidelines. However, the hardcoded `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` header in the SSE initialization handler was inadvertently retained. This vulnerability specifically impacts users connecting via Toolbox using SSE under specification v2024-11-05.

Mitigation

Phases: Architecture and Design, Operation

Strategy: Attack Surface Reduction

Description:

  • Define a restrictive Content Security Policy [REF-1486] or cross-domain policy file.
Mitigation

Phases: Architecture and Design, Operation

Strategy: Attack Surface Reduction

Description:

  • Avoid using wildcards in the CSP / cross-domain policy file. Any domain matching the wildcard expression will be implicitly trusted, and can perform two-way interaction with the target server.
Mitigation

Phases: Architecture and Design, Operation

Strategy: Environment Hardening

Description:

  • For Flash, modify crossdomain.xml to use meta-policy options such as 'master-only' or 'none' to reduce the possibility of an attacker planting extraneous cross-domain policy files on a server.
