WHAT IS CROSS-SITE REQUEST FORGERY CSRF ATTACK AND MITIGATIONS
One of the prevalent threats faced by web applications is Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). This attack, also known as a one-click attack or session riding, exploits the trust a web application has in a userâs browser. CSRF attacks occur when an attacker tricks a userâs browser into making an unintended and unauthorized request to a web application on which the user is authenticated. Understanding CSRF and implementing effective mitigation strategies is crucial for safeguarding web applications against this threat.
