Browser content-restriction bypass via missing CSP
Published Sep 29, 2022 · Updated May 20, 2025
Improper security control implementation in NetApp SnapCenter before 4.7 allows remote attackers to bypass browser content restrictions. The SnapCenter web interface omits a Content-Security-Policy response header, leaving browsers without CSP directives that restrict permitted content sources. The login surface is reachable before authentication, but NetApp has not identified a specific injection path or consequence beyond attacks that CSP would otherwise prevent.
