>
> CSRF prevention for REST APIs can be provided through hadoop commons servlet
> filter. This filter would check for the existence of an expected
> (configurable) HTTP header - such as X-XSRF-Header. This filter is added into
> Hadoop 2.8.0, so we might need to wait for sometime.
> The fact that CSRF attacks are entirely browser based means that the above
> approach can ensure that requests are coming from either: applications served
> by the same origin as the REST API or that there is explicit policy
> configuration that allows the setting of a header on XmlHttpRequest from
> another origin.
