Description

CORS module for NGINX that handles the parts the add_header recipe gets wrong. Preflight OPTIONS requests are answered internally and never reach the upstream. Origin matching supports exact lists, wildcard subdomains and regular expressions, with Access-Control-Allow-Credentials refused at configuration time when it would be paired with a wildcard origin the browser rejects. Access-Control-* headers are emitted on error responses too, so a failing request surfaces the real status instead of an opaque CORS failure. Vary: Origin is emitted whenever the response depends on the request origin, which keeps shared caches and CDNs correct. Premium module by GetPageSpeed. After installation, enable this module by running: plesk sbin nginx_modules_ctl --enable cors
