actix-web 0.7.17

//! A filter for cross-site request forgery (CSRF).
//!
//! This middleware is stateless and [based on request
//! headers](https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Cross-Site_Request_Forgery_(CSRF)_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet#Verifying_Same_Origin_with_Standard_Headers).
//!
//! By default requests are allowed only if one of these is true:
//!
//! * The request method is safe (`GET`, `HEAD`, `OPTIONS`). It is the
//!   applications responsibility to ensure these methods cannot be used to
//!   execute unwanted actions. Note that upgrade requests for websockets are
//!   also considered safe.
//! * The `Origin` header (added automatically by the browser) matches one
//!   of the allowed origins.
//! * There is no `Origin` header but the `Referer` header matches one of
//!   the allowed origins.
//!
//! Use [`CsrfFilter::allow_xhr()`](struct.CsrfFilter.html#method.allow_xhr)
//! if you want to allow requests with unprotected methods via
//! [CORS](../cors/struct.Cors.html).
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```
//! # extern crate actix_web;
//! use actix_web::middleware::csrf;
//! use actix_web::{http, App, HttpRequest, HttpResponse};
//!
//! fn handle_post(_: &HttpRequest) -> &'static str {
//!     "This action should only be triggered with requests from the same site"
//! }
//!
//! fn main() {
//!     let app = App::new()
//!         .middleware(
//!             csrf::CsrfFilter::new().allowed_origin("https://www.example.com"),
//!         )
//!         .resource("/", |r| {
//!             r.method(http::Method::GET).f(|_| HttpResponse::Ok());
//!             r.method(http::Method::POST).f(handle_post);
//!         })
//!         .finish();
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! In this example the entire application is protected from CSRF.
