Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00043 | $0.02369 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.00948 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00474 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00237 |
Grade A, and why
cors-cross-origin-misconfiguration scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

SKILL: CORS Misconfiguration — Credentialed Origins, Reflection, and Trust Boundary Errors
AI LOAD INSTRUCTION: Use this skill when browsers can access authenticated APIs cross-origin. Focus on reflected origins, credentialed requests, wildcard trust, parser mistakes, and origin allowlist bypasses. For JSONP hijacking deep dives, same-origin policy internals, honeypot de-anonymization, and CORS vs JSONP comparison, load the companion SCENARIOS.md.
Extended Scenarios
Also load SCENARIOS.md when you need:
- JSONP hijacking complete attack scenario — watering hole +
<script>cross-origin data theft - Honeypot de-anonymization via JSONP — use social platform JSONP endpoints to identify anonymous visitors
- Same-origin policy deep dive — protocol/hostname/port definition,
document.domainsubdomain relaxation and its security risks - CORS vs JSONP technical comparison — methods, error handling, credential behavior, migration path
- CORS exploitation payloads — reflected origin with
credentials: include, null origin via sandboxed iframe - Dual-site attack lab pattern — localhost:8981 (target) + localhost:8982 (attacker) testing setup
1. WHEN TO LOAD THIS SKILL
Load when:
- Responses contain
Access-Control-Allow-Origin,Access-Control-Allow-Credentials, or preflight headers - A browser-based attack path might read authenticated API responses
- JSON endpoints appear protected from CSRF but are readable cross-origin
2. HIGH-VALUE MISCONFIGURATION CHECKS
| Theme | What to Check |
|---|---|
| wildcard with credentials | Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * plus credential support or equivalent broken behavior |
| reflected origin | server echoes arbitrary Origin |
| weak allowlist | suffix, prefix, substring, regex, or mixed-case matching errors |
null origin |
acceptance of sandboxed, file, or serialized origins |
| preflight trust | overbroad methods and headers |
| internal API exposure | admin or tenant data readable cross-origin |

What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

cors-cross-origin-misconfiguration is a skill published in the GitHub repository SecurityTalent/bugskill-ai (13 stars, last pushed 21d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 2,369 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). It is 100% identical to cors-cross-origin-misconfiguration, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
