> HADOOP-12691 introduced a filter in Hadoop Common to help REST APIs guard
> against cross-site request forgery attacks.
> This issue tracks the integration of that filter into HBase REST gateway.
> From REST section of refguide:
> To delete a table, use a DELETE request with the /schema endpoint:
> http://example.com:8000<table>/schema
> Suppose an attacker hosts a malicious web form on a domain under his control.
> The form uses the DELETE action targeting a REST URL. Through social
> engineering, the attacker tricks an authenticated user into accessing the
> form and submitting it.
> The browser sends the HTTP DELETE request to the REST gateway.
> At REST gateway, the call is executed and user table is dropped
