CVE-2024-30250
📋 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.
