CSP is a HTTP response header* , which declare resources by the client browser and reduce XSS and data injections attacks.
Header give instructions to the browser which type of resources and from where they can be loaded.

CSP violation report
{ "csp-report": { "document-uri": "http://example.com/signup.html", "referrer": "", "blocked-uri": "http://example.com/css/style.css", "violated-directive": "style-src cdn.example.com", "original-policy": "default-src 'none'; style-src cdn.example.com; report-uri /_/csp-reports", "disposition": "report" } }
How to implement ?
Nginx
add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self';";
Apache
Header set Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self';
HAproxy
http-response set-header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' www.google-analytics.com"
Meta tag
<meta http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy" content="default-src https://cdn.example.net; child-src 'none'; object-src 'none'">

Why is good ?
- Help to protect your clients against XXS and data injections
- Is evolving !
- Is flexible
- Not programming language depending
- No additional computing resources
- Most browsers are compatible
- CSP Level 1 = 93.74 %
- CSP Level 2 = 81.6 %
Why is not so good ?
- Not for all application
- Is not on/off button
- Require additional human hours
- Should be changed during application life-cicle
- You will hate the CSP
- Most browser's are compatible
- Internet Explorer is not supported :(
- Is hard to implement on already live sites
Demo
Conclusion
- CSP is not a silver bullet;
- Choose wisely;
- It does't patch your code;
- Start with Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only;
- Start use security headers not only CSP;
- Yes security is hard;
- XSS is not only problem of the clients;
- Have fun !
