You can change Content-Security-Policy in your code. It's the better way to solve your issure.

I found that in azure linux, it is not directly known which webserver is used in the linux server, so I did not try the following method. If you are interested, you can raise a support for help, let Microsoft Engineer help you.

As you use linux platform, so you need to determine which webserver you use in your web app.

If use apache, you can add .htaccess file to solve the issue.

Implement Content Security Policy using local htaccess file (Apache)
If nginx, you can add yourcustom.conf file to do that.

Since no one could directly give me a help, i found by myself the answer that works like a charm.

What is the Permissions Policy header

The Permission Policy header is a security header that controls which browser features can be used. Besides implementing these rules for your own content it can also prevent external iframes from using these browser features, making it a powerful header to secure your site.

This allows you to have fine-grained control over which browser functions your site can use. There are a lot of directives that can be controlled with the Permission Policy header. For an extensive overview of all directives see New Permissions-Policy Directives and Features

And the code inside the .htaccess file is:

CakePHP DC Users 8.5.1 customising to use email

Asked 2020-Oct-06 at 15:13

I have a CakePHP application running on Cake PHP 3.8.13 and CakeDC Users 8.5.1.

I am currently able to log on using the username field, but I would like to use the email field for authentication. I have followed the instructions on https://github.com/CakeDC/users/blob/master/Docs/Documentation/Configuration.md#using-the-users-email-to-login but the system is still trying to use the username field. If I change email to username in the src/Template/Plugin/CakeDC/Users/Users/login.ctp I can log in using the username.

How can I get it to use the email field instead?

Security Response header in angular hosted in azure app service

Asked 2020-Jun-23 at 09:23

we have pure angular application ( not hosted in asp.net mvc core ) deployed to azure app service.

now requirement is, we need to add few security headers mentioned here

as well, wanted to remove X-Powered-By: ASP.NET header too.

so far on internet or my own search, what i found so far is to add in webconfig file, but remember,we have just angular app.

why should i use webconfig for that?

in your experience, how do you handle this situation? or what is the best answer?

Thanks in advance.

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Jun-23 at 09:23

This response is not coming from the server, it is handled by their frontend and they can't remove the specific header.

The article you found to add in web.config which is run on IIS. Refer to this issue.

You can raise a support issue with Microsoft Azure.

Facing issues with Blazor webapp deployed on Netlify

Asked 2020-Apr-26 at 14:15

I'm pretty new to web development, I might talk non-sense. After following some tutorials I've found a way to deploy a Blazor webapp on Netlify. For that I'm using a DotNet action on Github. It works almost perfectly, here is is the link: https://chefty.netlify.com. The thing is, my website is blocked by my antivirus (Avast). Page is stuck on "Loading..." blank screen saying "An unhandled error has occurred. Reload". I ended up looking for solutions and found out that it could come from the fact I'm missing a _headers file. People were also advising to add a _redirects file. So I added those to the root of my website, next to index.html:

_headers

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Apr-26 at 14:15

Finally got a solution from Netlify support engineer. I had three extra non-printing bytes at the start of the _headers. I removed them and it worked.

To remove extra bytes I used HxD editor. Start HxD as administrator to edit.

You used the wrong setting, this is not the CSRF_COOKIE_NAME [Django-doc], but the SESSION_COOKIE_NAME [Django-doc]:

Default: 'sessionid'

The name of the cookie to use for sessions. This can be whatever you want (as long as it’s different from the other cookie names in your application).

This type of error you will get when you use inline scripting in your application and if you try to use CSP along with that. If you want to include CSP to reduce the XSS Attack, then you have remove the inline scripting in your application. Inline scripting means writing the script in html file itself within "script" tag.

Install securityheaders

Make sure you have Python 2 or Python 3 installed. The current limitation of Python 3 is that the 'ScriptSrc'-style tags of the Content-Security-Policy are not analyzed. Start the script as follows. Use the -h flag for all options. In the example below, we execute the script to validate the headers of google.com. By default the script will display all the response headers it received from the server. To not display those, execute the --skipheaders flag with the InfoCollector value. The script also shows if security headers are missing. To disable those checks, add HeaderMissingChecker to the --skipheaders flag. The script can show a list of supported checkers via the --listcheckers flag. By default the script executes all of the listed checkers. Disable checkers with the --skipcheckers flag or execute specific checkers with the --checkers flag. If a checker has children, then the script skips or executes all the children checkers. In the example below, the script executes all checkers that find Content Security Policy issues, but skips the checkers that fire when the CSP header is missing. By default the script shows the output in a tabular format. To create output in a different format, use the --formatter flag. In the example below, the script outputs the findings as CSV. Note that formatters base64-encode the fields that may contain control characters for that format. For instance, for CSV the description is base 64 encoded as it may contain commas. To write output to a file rather displaying it on the screen, use the --file flag. To check multiple websites, separate them with a comma. To merge output into one table, use the --flatten flag. Avoid this if you are checking many (500k+) websites, as you may run out of memory. To load URLs from a file, use a filename rather than a URL. If the file is a CSV file, tell the column with URLs with the --urlcolumn flag (zero-indexed). To skip the CSV header row, use the --startrow flag. To analyze a saved response, use the --response rather than a URL. By passing a single dash (-) to --response the file will be read from sys.stdin. To supply headers directly, use the --headers and specify the headers separated with a newline.
