Actual Sync Server CORS Proxy GitHub API Allowlist Bypass

Actual Sync Server's CORS proxy uses an improper prefix check that allows authenticated users to access private GitHub repositories beyond the allowlisted plugin repositories when a GitHub token is configured. An attacker can bypass the allowlist by requesting API paths for repositories with names that start with an allowlisted repository name.

Impact

Authenticated users can read private GitHub resources including environment variables, secrets, and release information from repositories not in the allowlist by exploiting the prefix-based allowlist check.
