CVE-2024-30250

7.5 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

CVE-2024-30250 is a security bypass vulnerability in Astro-Shield that allows attackers to inject malicious cross-origin resources by adding valid integrity attributes to bypass allow-lists. This causes the browser to trust injected resources as legitimate due to SubResource Integrity hash validation. Users of Astro-Shield versions 1.2.0 through 1.3.1 are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • Astro-Shield
Versions: 1.2.0 to 1.3.1
Operating Systems: All

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete website compromise through malicious script injection leading to data theft, session hijacking, or malware distribution to visitors.

🟠

Likely Case

Cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks that steal user data, manipulate page content, or redirect users to malicious sites.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if additional security layers like WAFs, strict CSP policies, or network segmentation are in place.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

Add strict Content-Security-Policy headers manually in your web server configuration

Add 'Content-Security-Policy' header with strict directives to your web server config

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to block suspicious script injections
  • Enable additional security headers and monitoring for anomalous resource loading

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check package.json for astro-shield version: grep '"astro-shield"' package.json

Check Version:

npm list astro-shield | grep astro-shield

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify installed version is 1.3.2 or later: npm list astro-shield

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unexpected integrity attribute values in HTML responses
  • Cross-origin resource loads from unexpected domains

Network Indicators:

  • Script loads with integrity attributes from non-allowlisted domains
  • CSP violation reports for script-src directives

SIEM Query:

web.logs | where url contains "astro-shield" | where version matches "1.[2-3].[0-1]"
