Vulnerability details
Cleanuparr is a tool for automating the cleanup of unwanted or blocked files in Sonarr, Radarr, and supported download clients like qBittorrent. Prior to 2.9.10, Cleanuparr's global CORS policy reflects every request Origin and combines it with AllowCredentials(). When DisableAuthForLocalAddresses…

is enabled, the API also authenticates requests purely by source IP via TrustedNetworkAuthenticationHandler. The combination lets any website that an admin (or any user on a trusted IP) visits read authenticated API responses cross-origin — including the admin's permanent API key. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.9.10.

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Requires unique identification of the service before communications, addressing failures to validate the origin of the interaction.
Trusted path establishment enforces validation that the communication originates from and reaches only the intended trusted system components.
Enforces validation of the true origin of DNS responses via signatures and chain-of-trust mechanisms.
Enforces origin validation of name/address data, eliminating reliance on unverified or impersonated DNS sources.
Mandates origin validation so that only legitimate endpoints can continue the authenticated session.
