Synopsis

Path Relative Stylesheet Import

Description

A Path Relative Style Sheet Import occurs when the application imports a style sheet via a relative URL and uses user input in the file name. This vulnerability mainly affects older browsers such as Internet Explorer and allows an attacker to exploit the way the browser handles stylesheet imports in order to perform CSS Injection.

Solution

It is preferable not to use path-related URLs in stylesheet imports, and also to use the 'X-Content-Type-Options: nosnif' and 'X-Frame-Options: deny' headers.
