Conversation
CSRF was disabled on the SameSite=Lax + JSON-only rationale, but with a JDBC-backed session cookie the token machinery is the defense-in-depth norm (and security tooling rightly flags csrf.disable()). - CookieCsrfTokenRepository writes a JS-readable XSRF-TOKEN cookie on every response via SpaCsrfTokenRequestHandler (the Spring-documented SPA handler: BREACH-safe masking, raw header resolution) - apiFetch echoes the cookie as X-XSRF-TOKEN on state-changing requests - Pre-auth endpoints (request-link, verify) are exempt: their only credential is in the body and a first-time visitor has no CSRF cookie yet; logout and everything else require the token - SecurityWiringTest: token-less POST -> 403, logout with token -> 200 Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
