Element: securitypolicyviolation event

The securitypolicyviolation event is fired when a Content Security Policy is violated.

The event is fired on the element that violates the policy and bubbles. It is normally handled by an event handler on the Window or Document object.

The handler can be assigned using the GlobalEventHandlers.onsecuritypolicyviolation property or using EventTarget.addEventListener().

Examples

The code below shows how you might add an event handler function using the onsecuritypolicyviolation global event handler property or addEventListener() on the top level Window (you could use exactly the same approach on Document).

window.onsecuritypolicyviolation = function(e) {
   // Handle SecurityPolicyViolationEvent e here
 };

window.addEventListener("securitypolicyviolation", (e) => {
  // Handle SecurityPolicyViolationEvent e here
});
