nosurf is an HTTP package for Go
that helps you prevent Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks.
It acts like a middleware and therefore
is compatible with basically any Go HTTP application.
Even though CSRF is a prominent vulnerability, Go's web-related package infrastructure mostly consists of micro-frameworks that neither do implement CSRF checks, nor should they.
nosurf solves this problem by providing a CSRFHandler
that wraps your http.Handler and checks for CSRF attacks
on every non-safe (non-GET/HEAD/OPTIONS/TRACE) method.
nosurf requires Go 1.1 or later.
- Supports any
http.Handler(frameworks, your own handlers, etc.) and acts like one itself. - Allows exempting specific endpoints from CSRF checks by an exact URL, a glob, or a regular expression.
- Allows specifying your own failure handler.
Want to present the hacker with an ASCII middle finger
instead of the plain old
HTTP 400? No problem. - Uses masked tokens to mitigate the BREACH attack
- Has no dependencies outside the Go standard library.
