How does this skill detect vulnerabilities?

The skill analyzes application endpoints to see if they lack protection and validates existing mechanisms like CSRF tokens, origin headers, and SameSite cookie attributes.

What is CSRF and why should I validate it?

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is an attack that forces an authenticated user to execute unwanted actions on a web application. Validating it ensures your users' sessions cannot be hijacked for unauthorized state changes.

Can I use this for API security?

Absolutely. It is designed to check both traditional web forms and modern API endpoints that handle sensitive data or state-changing operations.

Does this skill provide fix recommendations?

Yes, after identifying a vulnerability, the skill generates a detailed report including potential attack scenarios and specific remediation steps to secure the endpoint.

Seguridad y Pruebas

Validates web application security by identifying Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities and auditing protection mechanisms.

Acerca de

This skill enables Claude to perform comprehensive security audits on web applications specifically targeting CSRF risks. It analyzes application endpoints, evaluates the effectiveness of implemented defenses like synchronizer tokens and SameSite cookie attributes, and generates detailed reports with remediation strategies. It is particularly useful for developers and security engineers who need to ensure their state-changing operations are secure against unauthorized cross-site requests during the development lifecycle.
