Forrest Xia commented on GERONIMO-6348:
---------------------------------------

There is another scenario when using IE to happen with this reported issue:

1) Start geronimo
2) Open http://localhost:8080/console/ in browser and enter usual username / 
password
3) Open http://localhost:8080/console/ again in the same tab / window <- that's 
the important step
4) Shutdown and start geronimo again
5) Open http://localhost:8080/console/ again in the same tab / window as 
before. You should get the login screen now. 
6) Enter username / password and hit enter - and now you should see the error.

After debugging, I found IE will send a different formId from the saved one in 
the http session to the server when using the same window to login console 
again after server restart. I observed that the formId is the old one before 
the server restarts. However, firefox does not have this issue.

So just commit a workaround for IE to let the XSSXSRFFilter message gone.

>             Project: Geronimo
>          Issue Type: Bug
>      Security Level: public(Regular issues) 
>          Components: console
>    Affects Versions: 3.0-beta-1
>         Environment: Windows, IE8 with compatibility mode on or Eclipse 
> internal web browser.
>            Reporter: Jarek Gawor

> When using the admin console on Windows with IE8 with compatibility mode on 
> the following messages are generated on each click:
> 2012-05-10 01:57:10,307 WARN  [XSRFHandler] Blocked due to missing 
> HttpServletRequest parameter.
> 2012-05-10 01:57:10,307 ERROR [XSSXSRFFilter] XSSXSRFFilter blocked 
> HttpServletRequest due to invalid FORM content.
> These messages are generated each time a request is made to access 
> /console/dojo/dojo/resources/blank.html. It looks like Dojo has a special 
> case for IE which generates this extra request not seen on other browsers.
> The problem is also visible using the Eclipse's internal web browser which 
> automatically gets configured with IE compatibility mode.
> These errors look harmless but can be very confusing and annoying to users so 
> I think we need to find some way to avoid them.
