This scanner is designed to detect vulnerabilities in the Content-Security-Policy (CSP) implementation of websites using Criteo CAS. Criteo CAS is leveraged by businesses worldwide for targeted advertising and digital asset management. Ensuring robust security measures against CSP bypasses is crucial to maintaining data integrity and protecting sensitive information within digital assets. Organizations ranging from small businesses to large enterprises utilize Criteo CAS for ad delivery and tracking, making security assessments vital.

The vulnerability detected in this scan allows for potential bypasses of Content-Security-Policies implemented by leveraging Criteo CAS. CSPs are intended to serve as a layer of defense against various types of attacks, including Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). When CSPs are improperly implemented or bypassed, attackers can potentially inject malicious scripts, leading to unauthorized actions within the application. This vulnerability emphasizes the importance of correct policy configurations to prevent exploitation.

During the scanning process, specific endpoints related to Criteo CAS are tested to identify potential CSP bypasses. The scanner checks headers for CSP directives and evaluates the possibility of executing unauthorized scripts by injecting crafted payloads. The vulnerable parameter often relates to misconfigured CSP policies that fail to restrict script sources adequately. The use of automated tools such as headless browsers enhances the detection by simulating realistic attack scenarios.

If successfully exploited, this vulnerability could result in unauthorized script execution within the user's browser. This can lead to various malicious activities, including data theft, session hijacking, and unauthorized actions within web applications. The potential impact of an XSS vulnerability could extend to damaging user trust, compromising sensitive data, and violating compliance requirements.
