Consolidate 22 sibling repos into layered organism structure
Place useful parts of the surrounding repos into sica-fondt by layer, per the
body model (Ada = membrane; brain/endocrine/capabilities/knowledge non-Ada):

- brain/        LLM reasoning + providers (dapr, hermes, MoMoA)
- capabilities/ REPRAG sidecars: hermes tools/skills, dapr tools, parallel
                dispatch, A51 channels, and the OSINT cluster
- knowledge/    LORAG corpus: 754 cyber-skills, agency personas, secure-coding,
                MITRE ATT&CK data
- reference/    defensive threat-reference (C3, shhbruh doc) + AdaYaml parser

License handling: AGPL sources (worldosint, advanced_evolution, mercury,
Reticulum) and GPL DeTTECT are SPEC-only clean-room/port descriptions — no
copyleft code copied. MIT/Apache/data parts copied as working trees.

Safety: shhbruh escape/persistence material and C3 covert-C2 kept as reference
only, not wired into the running organism. See CONSOLIDATION.md.

API Reference: Testing CORS Misconfiguration

requests Library

Key Methods for CORS Testing

# Test origin reflection
resp = requests.get(url, headers={"Origin": "https://evil.com"})

# Test preflight
resp = requests.options(url, headers={
    "Origin": "https://evil.com",
    "Access-Control-Request-Method": "PUT",
    "Access-Control-Request-Headers": "Authorization"
})

CORS Response Headers

Header Description
Access-Control-Allow-Origin Specifies allowed origin(s)
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials Whether cookies/auth headers are sent
Access-Control-Allow-Methods Allowed HTTP methods for cross-origin
Access-Control-Allow-Headers Allowed request headers
Access-Control-Expose-Headers Headers accessible to JavaScript
Access-Control-Max-Age Preflight cache duration in seconds

Vulnerability Patterns

Pattern Severity Description
Origin reflection + credentials Critical Any site can read authenticated responses
Null origin + credentials High Exploitable via sandboxed iframes
Wildcard + credentials Critical Invalid but sometimes misconfigured
Subdomain wildcard trust Medium XSS on subdomain enables CORS abuse
Regex bypass High Prefix/suffix matching allows attacker domains
Internal origins trusted Medium localhost/10.x accepted in production

Testing Checklist

  1. Send Origin: https://evil.com - check if reflected in ACAO
  2. Send Origin: null - check if null is accepted
  3. Test subdomain variations of target domain
  4. Test prefix/suffix bypass: target.com.evil.com
  5. Test protocol downgrade: http:// instead of https://
  6. Check preflight Max-Age (>86400 is excessive)
  7. Verify wildcard * is not combined with credentials
