EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This critical-severity CVE scores 9.3 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 86% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

Lightpanda is a headless browser designed for AI and automation. Prior to 0.2.9, Lightpanda fetch() and XMLHttpRequest unconditionally attached session cookies to every HTTP request, ignoring credentials: omit, credentials: same-origin, credentials: include, and XMLHttpRequest.withCredentials, allowing an attacker-controlled origin in a Lightpanda session to issue authenticated cross-origin requests against a victim origin. This issue is fixed in version 0.2.9.
