Maybe I am grasping the full usage of this protect_from_forgery function, but it does not seem to work for me. Imagine the following: A simple website with a user that needs to log in to do certain stuff and a closed off admin section that only certain users can access that have the is_admin field set to true. So to be clear, my User model has a login, password and is_admin. When displaying the

Hi, I have to enable batch uploads to my website with CURL and forgery protection in ApplicationController is standing in my way. I do use the restful authentication plugin and I do call login_required on all actions. Should I keep forgery protection around? Forgery protection only makes sure that the client request has originated from client''s session, right? Is there anything else

Hi !! I''m reading the rails guides about security, i had a question about the forgery protection If we consider a standard Restful resource ( generated with scaffold for example ), the update and create actions are protected from forgery attacks thanks to the authenticity token, but what about the destroy method ?? <a href="/posts/2"

Hi all, I am using ajax for some request but when the user session expire, I get a ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToke error.

Hi all, I stuck a little bit of information on CSRF on the wiki (http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/HowToAvoidCrossSiteRequestForgery) and created a "Security Concerns" page from the home page (http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/Security+Concerns) - it would be good to have a single point of information for all know security holes and fixes (even if they aren''t Rails

Hi, I just created a new Rails app that will be receiving some POSTed data from the outside so it must skip the verify_authenticity_token for some create actions. Although I have added: skip_before_filter :verifiy_authenticity_token I still get InvalidAuthenticityToken. In one of my other Rails app (created back in Rails 1.2.6 and updated to 2.3.2 over time) this skipping works perfectly though,

Hi, We would like to create a unique string when a user logs in and pass the string between actions. Each user can compare the incoming string with the one stored in the session to assert whether the request is coming from within the application or from a malicious external source. What mechanism can we use to pass this string around? Passing as params to the actions ,may not be an option as

I''m setting up a Paypal IPN listener and need the create action to not use rails'' default CSRF protection. I''ve got that working fine & test it actually works with cucumber (where I''ve turned CSRF back on, since it''s full-stack testing) but would like my controller spec to mention the need for protect_from_forgery :except => [:create] (and fail

Hi, http://apidock.com/rails/ActionController/RequestForgeryProtection only maintains one CSRF token at a time. When a user visits some site, he gets a new token in the session. He then might open a linked site of the same rails app in a new browser tab (maybe some info he''d like to read), and again he will get a new token. Then he changes to the first tab again and submits a form

I''m trying to create a log in in index.html, but I keep getting an error about InvalidAuthenticityToken. I understand this is something that RoR puts in the forms, and it changes regularly. The problem is that the home page in the public folder is html, and therefore static. has anyone else put a log in on their home page? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Should it? Can it even (add extra fields to the fb:request-form)? My view: <% content_for("challenge_content") do %>

Hello All, I''m a RoR newbiew, trying to experiment with Autocomplete, but I''m having some difficulties.

Here are the steps I''ve taken

So, one of the problems I am seeing is that people are trying to fake users into revealing information by sending from an outside domain but with an internal reply to address and claiming to be administration, IT or what not. I can set up something that will reject if from is outside the domain by reply to is internal. The problem is in some setups, there are fetchmail setups. I do not want to
