Well I'm not expert on CORS, nor with the Lemmy API, so it's probably better to read about CORS exploits in more detailed articles.. https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/exploiting-cors-guide-to-pentesting/ for example
It seems Lemmy is storing a JWT in the cookiejar, so with
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials:true
and the domain inAccess-Control-Allow-Origin
a site should be able to do authenticated get requests on a users behave with the JWT, and access personal data.The "GET https://programming.dev/api/v3/private_message/" endpoint for example, would let someone read the private messages someone has send/received
I'm not sure whether someone could do POST requests and add credentials from the cookiejar this way though
