Thanks for pointing out that ticket. So as I see it, there is currently
no easy way to secure pages from CSRF attacks if they are mounted. To be
honest I find it a bit surprising that no one contributed a solution for
this common problem.
I will probably go for the solution with redirects instead of mounting
pages, it seems to me to be the safest way.

Hi Martin,
thanks for your answer. I tried that and I am not sure if I did something
wrong, but still the URLs generated for posting forms are not encrypted.
For example I have a page that contains a form to change the user's
password and I want the page to be available as /changePassword. Now if the
user submits the form, the form's action points to /changePassword?xyz,
which makes it open to CSRF.
Best Regards,
Andreas

Hi,
You can extend CryptoMapper and setup it as root mapper.
In your custom CryptoMapper you can override "Url mapHandler(final
IRequestHandler requestHandler)". If the passed requestHandler is
IPageClassRequestHandler then you can call #getPageClass() on it and
decide
whether to encrypt the Url or not. For all other IRequestHandlers - always
encrypt.

Hi!
I am currently looking into making our Wicket applications CSRF safe.
From
my understanding the CryptoMapper is the way to go, and I was able to set
it up working successfully.
There are however several mounted pages in the applications (with
WebApplication.mountPage), where the URLs should not be encrypted. This
also works fine, the CryptoMapper does not encrypt the URLs to these
pages,
but that also removes the CSRF protection. E.g. if one of these mounted
pages contains a form, the URL to post back the form data is unencrypted
and vulnerable to CSRF.
My idea was to not mount pages directly, but instead mount a Page that
redirects to the actual page. That way the page is still reachable with a
static URL, but all consequent requests are properly encrypted.
So instead of:
webApplication.mountPage("****login", LoginPage.class);
Something like this:
public class LoginPageRedirect extends WebPage {
protected void onInitialize() {
throw new RestartResponseException(****LoginPage.class);
}
}
webApplication.mountPage("****login", LoginPageRedirect.class);
I did however not find anything in the wicket API that supports this
concept and now I am wondering if there is a better way to do this, e.g.
with a server side redirect.
I would be grateful for any ideas!
Best Regards,
Andreas
