Fixed In:
15.0.0, 14.1.2.3, 13.1.3.4

Opened: Dec 26, 2018

Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

When the backend server sends a content-security-policy header where source-src and default-src directives are missing, ASM will modify the header when it does its own JavaScript injection, which might cause a csp policy violation for inline JavaScript code.

Impact

Inline JavaScript does not run. The Browser reports a content-security-policy violation.

Conditions

-- ASM provisioned. -- ASM or Bot-Defense/DoS attached on a virtual server. -- ASM or Bot/Dos does inline injections, like CSRF/CSHUI.

Workaround

You can use either of the following workarounds: -- Disable csp in ASM by running the following commands: /usr/share/ts/bin/add_del_internal add csp_enabled 0 bigstart restart asm -- Disable csp in Bot/DoS using an iRule: when HTTP_REQUEST { set csp 0 } when HTTP_RESPONSE { if { [HTTP::header exists Content-Security-Policy] } { set csp "[HTTP::header values Content-Security-Policy]" } } when HTTP_RESPONSE_RELEASE { if { $csp != 0 } { HTTP::header replace Content-Security-Policy $csp } set csp 0 }

Fix Information

ASM/Bot/DoSL7 no longer modifies the csp header when both source-src and default-src directives are missing.
