PERTAIN_TOProblem

after logging in, users can access protected routes for 10 seconds. Once the token expires, refreshing the page or navigating should redirect them to the login page. — I’m working on a Next.js project using NextAuth (v5) for authentication. Tension: users can access protected routes for 10 seconds. Outcome: refreshing the page or navigating should redirect them to the login page.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

The cookie specifies my domain name, HTTPOnly is set to true, secure is true and samesite is lax — integrate it as an iframe within salesforce or any other CRMs. Tension: A Session needs to be maintained for authentication and authorization. Outcome: They can whitelist only /cpq page.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Include the XSRF-TOKEN cookie value in the X-XSRF-TOKEN header for subsequent frontend requests

PERTAIN_TOSolution

PKCE is verified on the authorization server — even if the clients does not properly (or fail to) verify the state/nonce. Tension: PKCE will still protect them. Outcome: PKCE will still protect them.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

authorization code injection attacks against confidential clients

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Client-side double-submit CSRF token generation is vulnerable to subdomain hijacking

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Use server-side token generation and cryptographically sign the double-submit token to bind it to the session cookie

PERTAIN_TOSolution

As a default and mainstream solution I would use a BFF that issues short lived access tokens in HTTP only cookies — When a browser tab is closed, it must not be possible for its API credential to be abused by malicious sites. Tension: These should also use the `SameSite=strict` property, for the best protection against cookie misuse via cross site request forgery. Outcome: These should also use the `SameSite=strict` property.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

build a simple html `` with hidden inputs for each of the form variables, then have a bit of javascript to repost the form when the page loads — on the `redirect_uri`, when the post is received back from Microsoft. Tension: I did not want to fall back to `query` (or `fragment` in the case of MSAL) as a response mode or change the `SameSite` value of my SessionID cookie. Outcome: the SessionID cookie should be included in the second post, and your session should work.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

But once you tricked a user to give their username and password to an attacker's domain, you don't really need CSRF to cause damage anyway. — login forms. Tension: At most you might be able to log a different user in for which you already have a username and password. Outcome: I wouldn't even generate a session cookie until after a user has logged in.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

I don't think CSRF protection for login forms are useful without also using a phishing attack. — login forms. Tension: They are relevant after a user logs in, in cases where there are forms that act on a user's behalf. Outcome: I wouldn't even generate a session cookie until after a user has logged in.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

I don't think there's anything wrong with just adding CSRF tokens to any form though — any form. Tension: it means that you don't really have to think about whether it's useful or not. Outcome: you don't really have to think about whether it's useful or not.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

I have another page, not, login page, where I want to check csrf token — for all other forms. Tension: isCsrfTokenValid is the only way? Outcome: I have to use isCsrfTokenValid.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

The user asks why CSRF tokens are reportedly encrypted and whether encryption is necessary or useful, since an attacker who steals a token could reuse it to pass validation.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Requests to the Django/DRF backend fail with “CSRF Failed: Origin checking failed - http://localhost:8000/ does not match any trusted origins.”

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Add the frontend origin (http://localhost:8000) to Django settings such as CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS and ensure ALLOWED_HOSTS (and any CORS whitelist) allow the same origin.
