Provides test methods, evidence, monitoring, alerting, remediation, and incident-response steps for content Security Policy. It fixes adoption boundaries and observable failure evidence while keeping environment-specific limits configurable.
Package status: reference context ready for human review. The contract and test scenarios are complete, but no claim is made that an adopting implementation has passed them.
Decision
For Content Security Policy, adopt a threat model and server-enforced control at the protected boundary. Treat the block as a release and regression contract built from representative positive, boundary, denial, failure, and recovery cases. This testing block focuses specifically on verification and response. This package is a reference contract: the adopting team must choose numeric limits, providers, jurisdictions, and operational owners from evidence in its own environment.
Scope
- The Content Security Policy actors, inputs, outputs, states, policy or schema versions, and externally visible outcomes required for the verification and response focus of this testing block.
- Primary and alternate interfaces, background work, caches, integrations, support paths, and evidence that can exercise the same boundary.
- Adoption-specific configuration, rollout, recovery, and verification responsibilities needed to apply the reference safely.
Outside this block
- Choosing a universal vendor, framework, jurisdiction, numeric threshold, retention period, or service-level objective for every adopter.
- Claiming that packaged scenarios have run against a downstream implementation or that this reference grants legal, security, or accessibility certification.
Contract
- Name assets, actors, trust boundaries, attacker capabilities, abuse cases, assumptions, and residual risk before selecting controls.
- Fail closed for protected operations when identity, policy, integrity, freshness, or resource scope cannot be established.
- Bound work and attempts per actor, credential, tenant, resource, and infrastructure capacity without trusting client-supplied identity alone.
- Keep secrets and sensitive payloads out of logs while retaining control version, correlation, decision, and safe reason as evidence.
- Record fixture version, environment, configuration, observed result, and evidence location for every decision-bearing run.
- Separate product failure, dependency failure, test-infrastructure failure, and inconclusive evidence in reports.
- Define route-specific source, script, style, frame, connection, media, object, base, form, and navigation policy with nonces or immutable hashes for deliberately authorized active content.
- Remove broad and unsafe exceptions, deploy report-only changes against representative pages before enforcement, sanitize reports, and verify redirects, errors, third-party integrations, and cached headers.
- For the verification and response variant, enforce this declared boundary: provides test methods, evidence, monitoring, alerting, remediation, and incident-response steps for content security policy.
Implementation guidance
- Build the smallest deterministic fixture set that spans risk classes, then add production-derived cases only after privacy-safe review.
- Model Content Security Policy inputs, outputs, actors, states, invariants, side effects, and evidence before selecting framework or vendor details.
- Store the applicable Content Security Policy contract or policy version with material state so migrations, replay, and support decisions remain attributable.
- Introduce the path behind controlled rollout, compare expected and observed outcomes, and keep a tested recovery route until adoption evidence is complete.
Failure handling and safeguards
- Control degradation preserves the protected boundary, raises an owned incident signal, and never grants access solely to maintain availability.
- Invalid or contradictory Content Security Policy state is rejected or quarantined; the implementation never guesses a value that broadens authority or duplicates an effect.
- Retries are bounded and use durable identity; after exhaustion, work reaches an inspectable terminal state with an accountable owner.
Verification and operations
- Run the suite twice from a clean state and confirm that ordering, retries, and parallel execution do not change the verdict.
- Monitor Content Security Policy success, denial, validation failure, dependency failure, retry exhaustion, and recovery by contract version without sensitive payload dimensions.
- Re-run paired positive and negative fixtures after policy, schema, dependency, migration, or boundary changes and preserve the resulting evidence.
Adoption assumptions
- Names and values in the example are a concrete fixture, not universal defaults; adopters replace them through documented evidence and ownership.
- The adopting system can provide authenticated identity, durable operation or record versions, bounded telemetry, and a controlled path for change.
The executable-looking examples in this package are fixtures and acceptance contracts. Run the collection validator to check structure and metadata, then translate and execute the scenarios in the target repository before recording implementation evidence.
