Even more funny CORS allow * has very funky interactions as it simplified "doesn't allow the client to provide credentials" (e.g. Authorization header, cookies, etc.). If you have public call-by-JS focused HTTP API which should be accessible from pretty much anywhere and therefore set it to * but also want an `Authorization` header you are in for bad luck. Solution 1. use a custom header for your credentials like e.g. AWS does, works for JS focused APIs but cookies and as such e.g. cookie based XSS protection won't work. Solution 2. dynamically return the callers domain as allowed origin. Works but requires dynamic responses to pre-flight requests and kinda undermines the whole CORS system. honestly neither is really satisfying
