Introduction

In the intricate landscape of web security, protecting users from malicious attacks is a paramount concern. Content Security Policy (CSP) stands as a critical defense mechanism, acting as an additional layer of security to mitigate various code injection threats. It’s not merely a “firewall” but a sophisticated agreement between a web server and a browser, dictating precisely which resources the browser is permitted to load and execute for a given page.

Introduction

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), sometimes pronounced “sea-surf” or referred to as XSRF, is a critical web security vulnerability that allows an attacker to induce a user’s browser to send an unintended, malicious request to a website where the user is already authenticated. Unlike phishing, where an attacker tries to trick a user into revealing credentials, CSRF exploits the browser’s inherent trust in a user’s session and the automatic inclusion of authentication credentials (like session cookies) with every request to a domain.
