Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) can be configured in
Liberty server's configurations file (server.xml) to allow
certain requests. Depending on the order the configurations are
processed, a request can be incorrectly matched to the wrong
CORS configuration.

The algorithm that matches the requests to Cross-origin resource
sharing (CORS) configurations was improved to find the best
match.
