Hello,

There's a security problem in the current Alpha Auth Code:

previous_url= cherrypy.request.headers.get("Referer", "/")

is used to determine which page requested the authentication

Problem is: A foreign site could forward the unsuspecting user to this
page, and then get the
Auth Data returned for free, because the Referer points back to the
Attacker's Site.
