Jerry He commented on HBASE-15187:
----------------------------------
Hi, [~tedyu]
You put the property hbase.rest-csrf.browser-useragents-regex in the
hbase-default.xml. But not any of the other new configuration properties,
including the one that enables this feature.
We probably should keep that property out of hbase-default.xml as well?
Also there is a risk that we will be out of sync with the Hadoop CSRF filter,
e.g. they fix a bug or make an improvement (it already happened in between your
patches). Can you add a note or a pointer in the Release Note so that people
are aware and are clear?
+1 after the above.

> 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
