Cross-site request forgery (CSRF), also known as session riding, is a type of cyberattack in which authenticated users of a web application are forced to submit malicious, state-changing requests created by an attacker.
The document discusses Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. It defines CSRF as an attack where unauthorized commands are transmitted from a user that a website trusts. The attack forces a logged-in user's browser to send requests, including session cookies, to a vulnerable website. This allows the attacker to generate requests the site thinks are from the user. The document outlines how CSRF works, example attacks, defenses for users and applications, and myths about CSRF. It recommends using unpredictable CSRF tokens or re-authentication to prevent CSRF vulnerabilities.
Client-side attacks trick victims into taking actions without their consent. Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) is an example attack where a victim is tricked into submitting a request to a vulnerable website, such as transferring funds to an attacker's account. An attacker found a CSRF vulnerability that allowed forcing a victim to send money with a simple click on a malicious website. Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) misconfigurations can also be exploited to read a victim's personal details by tricking them into visiting a malicious site that requests those details from a vulnerable website.
PENETRATION TEST ( CLIENT-SIDE ) CSRF / CORS MISCONFIGURATIONTadj Youssouf
The document discusses client-side penetration testing techniques like CSRF and CORS misconfiguration exploits. CSRF tricks victims into performing actions on a vulnerable website, like transferring funds, without their consent. CORS misconfiguration allows an attacker to read a victim's personal details from a website by abusing improperly configured CORS headers. Examples are given of potential CSRF and CORS exploits, such as forcing a money transfer or extracting a user's credit card number from a vulnerable API.
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is an attack where an authenticated user is tricked by a malicious website into performing unwanted actions on a web application. CSRF exploits the trust a website has in a user's browser to transmit authenticated requests. To prevent CSRF, websites can use tokens or cookies to validate each state-changing request and ensure it was intended by the user. Common vulnerabilities include failing to validate requests or not tying the token closely enough to the user's session.
CSRF, or cross-site request forgery, occurs when a malicious website causes a user's browser to perform unintended actions on a website where the user is authenticated. Attackers can use CSRF to perform actions like transferring money from a user's bank account without their knowledge or consent. To prevent CSRF, websites should use POST requests instead of GET, assign random tokens for requests, and include CSRF protections in frameworks. Major sites have been vulnerable to CSRF in the past, so defenses against it are important.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgery (XSRF) are two related web application vulnerabilities. XSS involves injecting malicious scripts into a web application to steal user data or perform actions on the user's behalf. XSRF tricks authenticated users into performing actions in a web application by submitting forged requests, since their browser will automatically include authentication cookies. While mitigations like validating HTTP referrers can help prevent XSRF, XSS can still be used to bypass these by scraping tokens or directly launching attacks from within compromised pages. Together, XSS and XSRF pose serious risks if not properly mitigated in web applications that handle sensitive data or perform sensitive actions.
This document discusses Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks, which occur when a malicious website causes a user's browser to perform unwanted actions on a trusted site that the user is authenticated with. The author presents four serious CSRF vulnerabilities discovered on major sites, including the first published attack involving a financial institution. Recommendations are provided for server-side changes to completely protect sites from CSRF attacks without breaking typical browsing behavior, as well as a client-side browser plugin to protect users even if sites have not implemented protections. The goal is to raise awareness of CSRF attacks and provide tools for developers to protect users.
Recent hacks of major international and regional banks have occurred due to exploits from the following vulnerabilities:

What is Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)?
CSRF is an attack in which attacker forges the request as a trusted user. The request is essentially made to send unintended data to the site. A vulnerable web application assumes that the data is coming from a trusted user.
The root cause is – request coming from browser is trusted by server blindly, if CSRF protection is not implemented.
This “blind trust” lets attacker create a forged request, and make the victim perform that request.
How Attack Can Happen?
Attacker knows about target application, on which the attack is to be performed
Attacker forges request and sends it to victim who may be logged into the website by embedding that forged request into a hyperlink
Victim clicks on it, and unknowingly sends malicious request to website
Website accepts it and processes it. Thus the attacker is successful in performing the attack.
Damages caused by CSRF?
In Net-banking attacker can forge the request and send it to victim to steal money from Victim’s account
Personal health information can be stolen or modified in a hospital database
Attacker force victim to perform unwanted action which affect their profile
Mitigation Techniques
Can be mitigate by two ways
CSRF token (a cookie which is introduced in each form and validated by web app)
Captcha (implemented to ensure that the request is being performed by a human interaction)
Prevention Against CSRF Attack using Client Server Mutual Authentication Tech...IRJET Journal
This document proposes a client server mutual authentication technique to prevent CSRF (cross-site request forgery) attacks. It separates the identification and authentication steps. When a user logs in, the server provides an encoded authentication token to the user in the form of an image. To complete sensitive requests, the server asks the user to select the correct token from multiple images to verify their identity. Encoding the tokens with base64 encoding improves security. The technique was tested and found to prevent CSRF attacks made through POST or GET requests using JavaScript or HTML tags by requiring the valid token for each request. This provides better protection against CSRF attacks compared to existing solutions.
CSRF, or cross-site request forgery, is a type of malicious exploit where unauthorized commands are transmitted from a user that a website trusts. The problem is that when a site authenticates a user with a cookie, that cookie is sent with all subsequent requests, allowing an attacker to craft a form that submits to the authenticated site on the user's behalf. The solution presented uses a CSRF canary token - a randomly generated value stored in both the user's cookie and HTML forms - to prevent the attacker from accurately predicting and replicating the canary value. Developers are instructed to use the Html.AntiForgeryToken() helper and ValidateAntiForgeryToken attribute to implement this solution on POST requests, as GET
The document discusses common web application and website attacks. It begins by introducing the topic and explaining how hacked websites can be misused. It then lists some of the most popular attacks like SQL injection, path traversal, and cross-site scripting. Specific attack types are further explained, including how they work and their goals. In total, over 20 different attack categories are defined, from denial of service attacks to buffer overflows. The document aims to educate about common web threats so organizations can better prevent and defend against them.
CSRF Attacks and its Defence using Middlewareijtsrd
A common solution to the issue of CSRF vulnerability is to restrict malicious requests from reaching the core of the application, where all the data and business logic is present. But the most challenging part is to identify when a request is malicious and when is it healthy. Implementing a simple solution would lead to more vulnerabilities and implementing too strict a solution would lead to breakages where projects depend on cross site requests like third party authentication and payment gateways etc. The solution being proposed in this paper constitutes the design and implementation of a request filtering mechanism that can precisely distinguish between malicious and healthy requests, and automatically decide to restrict them or allow them to get further deep into the system. This paper briefly explains what a Cross Site Request Forgery attack is, and then goes into a step by step explanation on the prevention of CSRF attacks using a middleware. The proposed system is very strict in filtering out HTTP requests but also has an option to exempt certain cross site requests based on their domain or URL, with which payment hooks and other third party authentication calls can be exempted from the CSRF middleware. Shubham Kumar Jha | Raghavendra R "CSRF Attacks and its Defence using Middleware" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-5 | Issue-4 , June 2021, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.compapers/ijtsrd42476.pdf Paper URL: https://www.ijtsrd.comcomputer-science/world-wide-web/42476/csrf-attacks-and-its-defence-using-middleware/shubham-kumar-jha
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks trick a user's browser into performing unwanted actions on a trusted site the user is authenticated to. This is done by malicious sites using images or other tags to trigger authenticated requests, like funds transfers, to the trusted site without the user's knowledge. CSRF differs from XSS which exploits scripting bugs, and protection from XSS does not prevent CSRF. Methods to prevent CSRF include using random tokens in requests and only allowing GETs to retrieve data instead of modifying it.
The most Common Website Security ThreatsHTS Hosting
The document discusses the most common security threats faced by websites, including SQL injection, credential brute force attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), and distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. It explains that websites store data on web servers accessed through the internet, making them vulnerable targets. The threats aim to steal information, abuse server resources, trick bots/crawlers, or exploit visitors. Proper web security is needed to prevent attacks and protect websites and their users.
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) is an attack where an authenticated user is tricked by a malicious website into performing unwanted actions on a trusted site where they are authenticated. The attack works by exploiting the trusted site's inability to verify whether the requests originated from the user intentionally. Common defenses include using random tokens with each request, checking the referer header, and using same-site cookies to prevent requests from third party sites.
The document discusses common software vulnerabilities in JavaScript, including cross-site scripting, cross-site request forgery, clickjacking, broken authentication, code injection, insecure direct object references, and security misconfiguration. It notes that while JavaScript is widely used, vulnerabilities can be exploited by attackers, so developers must be aware of these issues and implement proper security practices. The conclusion recommends a comprehensive code review to identify and mitigate potential security problems.
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is a major web vulnerability that forces users to perform unintended actions on websites. It remains underreported due to the difficulty of detection. CSRF can be used to hijack user accounts, modify browser settings, and force purchases without user awareness or consent. While solutions like tokens exist, many websites remain vulnerable to CSRF attacks.
Study of Cross-Site Scripting Attacks and Their CountermeasuresEditor IJCATR
In present-day time, most of the associations are making use of web services for improved services to their
clients. With the upturn in count of web users, there is a considerable hike in the web attacks. Thus, security becomes
the dominant matter in web applications. The disparate kind of vulnerabilities resulted in the disparate types of attacks.
The attackers may take benefit of these vulnerabilities and can misuse the data in the database. Study indicates that
more than 80% of the web applications are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. XSS is one of the fatal
attacks & it has been practiced over the maximum number of well-known search engines and social sites. In this paper,
we have considered XSS attacks, its types and different methods employed to resist these attacks with their
corresponding limitations. Additionally, we have discussed the proposed approach for countering XSS attack and how
this approach is superior to others.

is a type of cyberattack in which authenticated users of a web
application are forced to submit malicious, state-changing
requests created by an attacker.
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is an attack that forces an
end user to execute unwanted actions on a web application in
which they’re currently authenticated. With a little help of
social engineering (such as sending a link via email or chat), an

changing requests like transferring funds, changing their email
address, and so forth. If the victim is an administrative account,
CSRF can compromise the entire web application.
