sets the Content-Security-Policy header which can help protect against malicious injection of JavaScript, CSS, plugins, and more.

Attack

When hackers can place content onto your site, they can do bad things! For example, javascript executing can give them someones credit card data. Or they could place a 1x1 transparent gif on your site to collect data.

The Header

The Content-Security-Policy header tells browsers which domains content can come from. This is essentially a white list of domains where content can be loaded. For example, images could only come from your images subdomain.

Code

Here we are saying images can come from any subdomain of my site. Fonts can come from the current domain.

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env, ILoggerFactory loggerFactory)
{
                app.UseContentSecurityPolicy(
                new ContentSecurityPolicyBuilder()
                .WithDefaultSource(CSPConstants.Self)
                .WithImageSource("http://*.mysite.com")
                .WithFontSource(CSPConstants.Self)
                .WithFrameAncestors(CSPConstants.None)
                .BuildPolicy()
               );
}
