Explanation
The description includes the issue references, feature and bugfix test confirmations, breaking-change note, sign-off status, contribution confirmation, and release notes. It does not confirm documentation updates, and it omits some checklist details such as performance and breaking-change sub-items, but it is mostly complete and relevant.

Explanation
For
#5455, the implementation adds--web.cors.origin, disables CORS when the value is empty, anchors the origin pattern, rejects invalid patterns at startup, and applies the handler to API v2 and Connect routes.test/e2e/cors_test.gocovers allowed, disallowed, disabled, and prefixed-route cases. The issue also requests documentation and a v3 policy decision. Those are non-coding or maintenance decisions, so they do not fail this coding assessment. The supplied linked-issue data does not include requirements for#3165.

Explanation
The changed application wiring, CORS dependency, API integration, command-line flag, test harness support, end-to-end tests, and local test configuration all support the CORS behavior described by
#5455. The supplied whole-pull-request summary shows no unrelated change.go.sumis excluded from review, but no scope conclusion depends on that file.

Update the CORS migration guidance.
When operators leave --web.cors.origin unset, browser clients that relied on the previous wildcard default can no longer read API responses. The published Prometheus security model still says /api/v2 sends Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * by default. Update doc/https.md and proxy guidance to explain the new default and show how to configure an origin. Coordinate a correction to the security model. (prometheus.io)
Based on PR objectives, issue #5455 requests doc/https.md and proxy guidance.

connectcors.ExposedHeaders() is tiny. maybe we could just define the helper locally instead of adding an external dependency

I think it is fine, we probably need this for the new API as well.

CORS headers are only sent for origins matching the fully anchored regex. The flag is empty by default, which disables CORS. Previously every origin was allowed. This is a breaking change. Users must now explicitely into CORS. Signed-off-by: Solomon Jacobs <solomonjacobs@protonmail.com>
