Likelihood Level Low

Description

The configuration allows all external origins ('*') to access your Azure App Service via CORS. This means any website can make requests to your app, exposing it to potential abuse.

Impact

If exploited, malicious websites could interact with your app's APIs, potentially stealing sensitive data or performing unauthorized actions on behalf of users. This weakens your app's defenses and increases the risk of data leaks or account compromise.
