             Summary: CrossOriginResourceSharingFilter FIELD_COMMA_PATTERN 
mangles firefox headers
                 Key: CXF-5017
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-5017
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JAX-RS Security
    Affects Versions: 2.6
         Environment: firefox
            Reporter: Pieter Goddijn
            Priority: Minor


When a CORS request header send with a comma delimited list of values without 
whitespace, the regexp:
private static final Pattern FIELD_COMMA_PATTERN = Pattern.compile(",\\w*");
consumes (part of) the next item in the list.

The offending header in my case is (on a HTTP OPTIONS pre-flight check)
Access-Control-Request-Headers: authorization,content-type
which is eventually returned to the browser as:
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: authorization, -type

The result of which is Firefox refusing the cross-domain POST request following 
this OPTIONS check

i couldn't find a reason why the \\w* part should be part of a comma splitting 
regexp, changing the regexp to
"," , ",\\b*" or ",\\s" fixed the problem for me and would seem more logical to 
me (but i'm not too familiar with the ins and out of CXF)
