Bug: The default CORS_ORIGINS includes http://localhost:3000. With AllowCredentials: true, this is a security risk if the environment variable is not explicitly set in production.
Severity: MEDIUM
Suggested Fix
Remove http://localhost:3000 from the default CORS_ORIGINS value. Alternatively, implement environment-aware defaults, providing a different, more restrictive set of origins for production environments compared to development. This ensures development origins are not accidentally enabled in production.

Potential issue: The default value for `CORS_ORIGINS` was changed to include
`http://localhost:3000`. This origin is now allowed by default in all environments. The
CORS configuration in `cmd/api/main.go` has `AllowCredentials: true` hardcoded. If the
`CORS_ORIGINS` environment variable is not explicitly set in a production deployment,
the API will accept credentialed requests from `http://localhost:3000`. This is a
security misconfiguration that violates the principle of least privilege by including a
development-specific origin in the production default settings.
