New description:

 The default setting for CSRF_HEADER_NAME is 'HTTP_X_CSRFTOKEN' which is
 incompatible with modern web application servers (including django
 development server), this is because it includes an underscore, which
 these servers don't allow since it can lead to 'header-spoofing'.

 I found this on 4.0 but it's present in 4.1 and dev aswell.
