Astro is a web framework for content-driven websites. From 7.0.0 until 7.0.6, the composable astro/hono pipeline installs security.checkOrigin only through the middleware() primitive, while actions() and pages() can dispatch to user code independently. Mounting actions() before middleware(), as in the examples/advanced-routing example and Cloudflare Hono documentation, allows cross-origin form-encoded action requests to execute before the origin check, and using pages() without middleware() drops the check for on-demand endpoints and pages. The flaw enables blind write-only cross-site request forgery using the victim's cookies against ActionHandler.handle and PagesHandler.handleWithErrorFallback when manifest.checkOrigin is enabled; the attacker can trigger a state-mutating action or endpoint handler but cannot read the cross-origin response. The default non-composable astro() pipeline is not affected. This issue is fixed in version 7.0.6.
CVE-2026-73423
This medium-severity CVE scores 5.1 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 92% 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).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
