I have containerized and deployed my angular app to nginx. I want to send a Content-Security-Policy header with a nonce. I am using $ssl_session_id for the nonce from nginx.

I am able to pass the nonce to the angular app and use it. But the issue I noticed is that for the ssl_session_id of each of the subrequests within the index.html, some are using a seperate $ssl_session_id and some are using the same $ssl_session_id as index.html

Thus the nonce set in the meta tag of the index.html is not matching with the nonce in the Content-Security-Policy header of some subrequests.

The expectation is that the nonce must be regenerated only everytime the index.html is served i.e everytime the angular app is reloaded and not for every subrequest within the index.html.

Below is the nginx.conf I am using right now

server{
    listen 0.0.0.0:5443 ssl;
    server_name innocent.csrfexample.com;
    ssl_certificate     /etc/nginx/secureAngularExample.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/secureAngularExample.key;
    default_type application/octet-stream;
    error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log debug;

set $cspNonce $ssl_session_id;
sub_filter_once off;
sub_filter_types *;
sub_filter NGINX_CSP_NONCE $cspNonce;

    gzip                    on;
    gzip_comp_level         6;
    gzip_vary               on;
    gzip_min_length         1000;
    gzip_proxied            any;
    gzip_types              text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;
    gzip_buffers            16 8k;
    client_max_body_size    256M;



    add_header 'Content-Security-Policy' "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' 'nonce-$cspNonce';   style-src 'self' 'nonce-$cspNonce' always";
   

    root /usr/share/nginx/html;



        location /assets/ {
         #assets within the root
         autoindex on;
        }


        location / {
        # matches any path within the root
        try_files $uri $uri/index.html /index.html =404;

        }

        
        error_page  404              /index.html;


    }
