Konrad Windszus commented on SLING-11871:
-----------------------------------------
Why not implementing a real validation instead of just skipping as proposed in
SLING-9061?
> Referrer Filter - Enable Bypass for Requests with Origin Header
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-11871
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11871
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Sling Security
> Affects Versions: Security 1.1.24
> Reporter: Dan Klco
> Assignee: Dan Klco
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: Security 1.1.26
>
>
> The Referrer Filter in Apache Sling Security blocks requests without a
> Referrer or a non-allow listed Referrer. Therefore Referrer filter will also
> block external CORS requests which rather than using the Referrer, like
> standard browser requests, use the Origin header.
> We should therefore enable bypassing the ReferrerFilter for requests
> containing an Origin header. These requests would need to be separately
> validated by something else to ensure the Origin is valid.
