I want to access a website using javascript. but I am getting the following error in the console.
Refused to connect to 'https://example.com' because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "default-src 'self'". Note that 'connect-src' was not explicitly set, so 'default-src' is used as a fallback.
I have added the following meta tag in the index.html,
meta http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy" content="connect-src 'self' http://example.com;" />
Isn't this the right way to add CSP? please help.
You already have one CSP published with the default-src 'self' policy. Quite possible it was done via HTTP header.
Check the Helmet middleware settings in case of NodeJS server, or Header set in the .htaccess file in case on Apache server. In case of Nginx it can be add_header in the config.
By adding <meta> tag you just publish a second CSP, which does not overrides the first one. 2 CSPs works subsequently - all sources should pass both CSP.
Figure out where CSP is publushed and add connect-src 'self' http://example.com; there.

I have these two inline script tags:
<script async defer src="https://apis.google.com/js/api.js"></script>
<script async defer src="https://accounts.google.com/gsi/client"></script>
note: I tried specifying both the host only (https://apis.google.com) and the full URL.
And I added the following CSP header:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy"
content="script-src 'self' https://apis.google.com/js/api.js https://accounts.google.com/gsi/client">
This is supposed to allow me to include scripts from the origin and said two sources. However, I still receive the following error:
The problem is most likely that there are now two or more policies active. They can be defined in both meta tags and as response headers. Any content needs to pass all policies, and adding another policy can only make it stricter. One policy is "script-src 'self'" while your policy is "script-src 'self' https://apis.google.com/js/api.js https://accounts.google.com/gsi/client". Combined they will be equal to the first one. You need to figure out where the other policy is set and modify or disable it. It could be set by a framework, webserver, proxy, load balancer etc...
I've just updated the Content-Security-Policy settings in the Web.Config file and added the Application Insights JavaScript snippet in my _Layout.cshtml.
Here is what the Content-Security-Policy in the Web.config looks like.
script-src-elem
'self'
'unsafe-inline'
'unsafe-eval'
https://az416426.vo.msecnd.net/scripts/b/ai.2.min.js
*.mymapjs.com
script-src
'self'
'unsafe-inline'
'unsafe-eval'
https://az416426.vo.msecnd.net/scripts/b/ai.2.min.js
*.mymapjs.com
mymapjs.com is not longer working properly, my maps aren't showing up, and my browser is upset with me yelling at me in red letters with the error:
Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'mymapjs.com' from origin 'mywebsite.com' has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: It does not have HTTP ok status.
When I remove the https://az416426.vo.msecnd.net/scripts/b/ai.2.min.js url from the Web.config Content-Security-Policy I get the warning:
Refused to load the script 'https://az416426.vo.msecnd.net/scripts/b/ai.2.min.js' because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "script-src-elem 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval' https://*.mymapjs.com use.other.net use.other.net/ https://myfont.net/it.js
It turns out I enabled the enableCorsCorrelation = true in the Application Insights configuration.
So then I tried updating the correlationHeaderExcludedDomains values with a wild card value for the mymapjs.com.
correlationHeaderExcludedDomains:
[
'myapp.azurewebsites.net',
'*.queue.core.windows.net',
'*.mymapjs.com'
]
The wild card alone didn't work. I had to strictly type the JS libraries urls AND have the wildcard for it to work properly. It wants the scripts that are directly being requested from the _Layout.cshtml as well as the ones generated from the JS libraries.
correlationHeaderExcludedDomains:
[
'myapp.azurewebsites.net',
'*.queue.core.windows.net',
'*.mymapjs.com'
'https://mymapjs.com-core-events.js'
'https://mymapjs.com-services.js'
'https://mymapjs.com-ui-services.js'
]
If anyone else gets caught up figuring this out, I hope this helps.
I am serving a HTML page in my node.js server with express.public() function.
and i added this into my html page:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vue#2/dist/vue.js"></script>
And Chrome gaves me a Content-Security-Policy to me.
I used this middlewares in my Node index.js
app.use(morgan('tiny'));
app.use(helmet());
app.use(cors());
app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.static("./public"));
My application headers:
Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';base-uri 'self';block-all-mixed-content;font-src 'self' https: data:;frame-ancestors 'self';img-src 'self' data:;object-src 'none';script-src 'self';script-src-attr 'none';style-src 'self' https: 'unsafe-inline';upgrade-insecure-requests
How can i add this script without any SecurityPolicy
SOLVED
I remove "Helmet" from my project. Helmet is blocking the all cdn and scripts other then absolute domain.
Content Security Policy is set in the html file being served or by the software serving the html (e.g Nginx, Apache).
At the moment you have: default-src 'self', this means you are telling the browser that it is only able to make requests to its own domain.
You need to add https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vue#2/dist/vue.js to this list of domains it can access.
That would be something like:
Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';script-src 'self' https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vue#2/dist/vue.js; base-uri 'self';block-all-mixed-content;font-src 'self' https: data:;frame-ancestors 'self';img-src 'self' data:;object-src 'none';script-src-attr 'none';style-src 'self' https: 'unsafe-inline';upgrade-insecure-requests
So default-src: self sets the default to restrict requests to only your own domain.
script-src 'self' https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vue#2/dist/vue.js overrides this and says specifically for scripts restricts request to only your domain and that url.
This has lots of details and examples:
https://content-security-policy.com
In addition to what silent-tiger said, I think you should first find out which middleware is responsible for adding this content policy. Do this by disabling all middleware (except express static) and then add the other middlewares one by one until you see the Content Secutity Policy headers again.
If you found which middleware is responsible, then you know which middleware you should configure.
I'm write an external script for a single web page and i need to make one POST JSON request to another resource through this script.
However, when i do, it throws CSP error: "Refused to connect to <URL> because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "connect-src 'self'".
I looked into the web page and see meta tag which contain a Content-Security-Policy with CSP content. However, i tried manually add my <URL> to CSP connect-src content, but it is still not working.
Questions:
can i change CSP through the external script? How?
maybe any workaround for this?
The error message is saying the setting that needs to be changed:
it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "connect-src 'self'"
So you need to set the 'connect-src' directive to something other than 'self', which might have been set by default.
You said you tried to add the URL that you're trying to connect to. That is not quite right - you need to add just the host part, rather than any of the path.
So the connect-src part of the CSP header should look like:
connect-src 'self' https://*.example.com
If you update your question with what you tried, if it still isn't working, the exact error could be diagnosed.
I am creating a web app using the mean stack in angular 6 but I am getting below error message on the browser console.
"Refused to load the font '<URL>' because it violates the following
Content Security Policy directive: "default-src 'self'". Note that
'font-src' was not explicitly set, so 'default-src' is used as a
fallback."
Code:
getUsers() {
return this._http.get("/api/users")
.pipe(map(result => this.result = result.json().data));
}
Content security policy is a way for modern browsers, to define a set of restrictions when loading remote resources.
Response headers from the HTTP protocol can set those policies:
Content-Security-Policy header (official), X-Content-Security-Policy (supported by Mozilla Firefox and IE10) and X-WebKit-CSP (supported by Google Chrome and Safari) HTTP response headers with the list of Content Security Policy directives. (from seckit drupal module)
You can set different policies to different types of elements in the DOM (e.g <img>, <script>, <object>, <embed>, <iframe> and so on...), to restrict requests that originates from that element.
So you need to change 'self' to one of the following:
'none' - block content from any source
'self' - allow content only from your domain
'unsafe-inline' - allow specific inline content (note, that it is supported by a subset of directives)
'unsafe-eval' - allow a set of string-to-code API which is restricted by default (supported by script-src directive)
Wildcards (*) are allowed:
* - load content from any source
*.example.com - load content from example.com and all its subdomains
example.com:* - load content from example.com via any port. -
Otherwise, it will use your website default port
Adding 'self' and data: to the font-src works for me.
Content-Security-Policy: font-src 'self' data:;
font-src reference doc from MDN
The Content-Security-Policy header is set by your api. Check your api response for its value.
As per the error, I think your fonts are loaded from a different domain than your application domain. Unless your api whitelists that domain, your browser will not load the font.
Example:
Content-Security-Policy: font-src https://example.com/
just close all browser, clear cache and restart VSC or your code editor. Ir worked fro me.
