    2227How to use it
    2328=============
    2429
    25 Add the middleware ``'django.contrib.csrf.middleware.CsrfMiddleware'`` to
    26 your list of middleware classes, :setting:`MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES`. It needs to process
    27 the response after the SessionMiddleware, so must come before it in the
    28 list. It also must process the response before things like compression
    29 happen to the response, so it must come after GZipMiddleware in the
    30 list.
     30.. versionchanged:: 1.1
     31    The template tag functionality (the recommended way to use this) was added
     32    in version 1.1. The previous method (still available) is described under
     33    `Legacy method`_.
    3134
    32 The ``CsrfMiddleware`` class is actually composed of two middleware:
    33 ``CsrfViewMiddleware`` which performs the checks on incoming requests,
    34 and ``CsrfResponseMiddleware`` which performs post-processing of the
    35 result.  This allows the individual components to be used and/or
    36 replaced instead of using ``CsrfMiddleware``.
     35To enable CSRF protection for your views, follow these steps:
    3736
    38 .. versionchanged:: 1.1
    39     (previous versions of Django did not provide these two components
    40     of ``CsrfMiddleware`` as described above)
     37    1. Add the middleware
     38       ``'django.contrib.csrf.middleware.CsrfViewMiddleware'`` to your list of
     39       middleware classes, :setting:`MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES`.  (It should come
     40       before ``CsrfResponseMiddleware`` if that is being used, and before any
     41       view middleware that assume that CSRF attacks have been dealt with.)
    4142
     43    2. Add ``'django.contrib.csrf'`` to your :setting:`INSTALLED_APPS`.
     44
     45    3. In any template that uses a POST form, first load the 'csrf' template tag
     46       library::
     47
     48           {% load csrf %}
     49
     50       Then use the ``csrf_token`` tag inside the ``<form>`` element, e.g.::
     51
     52           <form action="" method="POST">{% csrf_token %}
     53
     54    4. In the corresponding view functions, ensure that the
     55       ``'django.contrib.csrf.context_processors.csrf'`` context processor is
     56       being used. Usually, this can be done in one of two ways:
     57
     58       1. Using RequestContext:
     59
     60          1. Ensure ``'django.contrib.csrf.context_processors.csrf'`` is present
     61             in your :setting:`TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS` setting. It is
     62             present by default.
     63
     64          2. Use ``RequestContext`` as the context instance in the relevant
     65             views. If you are using generic views or contrib apps, you are
     66             covered already.
     67
     68       2. Manually import and use the processor to generate the CSRF token and
     69          add it to the template context. e.g.::
     70
     71              from django.contrib.csrf.context_processors import csrf
     72              from django.template import Context
     73              from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
     74              def my_view(request):
     75                  c = Context()
     76                  c.update(csrf(request))
     77                  return render_to_response("a_template.html", context_instance=c)
     78
     79Legacy method
     80-------------
     81
     82In Django 1.0, the template tag did not exist.  Instead, a post-processing
     83middleware that re-wrote POST forms to include the CRSF token was used.  If you
     84are upgrading a site from version 1.0 or earlier, please read this section and
     85the `Upgrading notes`_ below.  The post-processing middleware is still available
     86as ``CsrfResponseMiddleware``, and it can be used by following these steps:
     87
     88    1. Follow step 1 above to install ``CsrfViewMiddleware``.
     89
     90    2. Add ``'django.contrib.csrf.middleware.CsrfResponseMiddleware'`` to your
     91       :setting:`MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES` setting.
     92
     93       ``CsrfResponseMiddleware`` needs to process the response before things
     94       like compression happen to the response, so it must come after
     95       ``GZipMiddleware`` in the list.  It also must come after
     96       ``CsrfViewMiddleware``.
     97
     98Use of the ``CsrfResponseMiddleware`` is not recommended because of the
     99performance hit it imposes.  It can be used as an interim measure until
     100applications have been updated to use the ``{% crsf_token %}`` tag.
     101
     102Django 1.0 provided a single ``CsrfMiddleware`` class.  This is also still
     103available for backwards compatibility.  It combines the functions of the two new
     104middleware.
     105
     106Note also that previous versions of these classes depended on the sessions
     107framework, but this dependency has now been removed, with backward compatibility
     108support so that upgrading will not produce any issues.
     109
     110Upgrading notes
     111---------------
     112
     113When upgrading to version 1.1 or later, you may have applications that rely on
     114the old post-processing functionality for CSRF protection, or you may not have
     115enabled any CSRF protection.  This section outlines the steps necessary for a
     116smooth upgrade, without having to fix all the applications to use the new
     117template tag method immediately.
     118
     119If you are using any of the contrib apps (such as the admin), there are some
     120required steps for these applications to continue working. First, the CSRF
     121application must be added to :setting:`INSTALLED_APPS` (See `How to use it`_
     122above, step 2).  Second, the :setting:`TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS` setting must
     123be updated (step 4.1.1 above).
     124
     125If you have ``CsrfMiddleware`` in your :setting:`MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES`, you will now
     126have a working installation with CSRF protection.  It is recommended at this
     127point that you replace ``CsrfMiddleware`` with its two components,
     128``CsrfViewMiddleware`` and ``CsrfResponseMiddleware`` (in that order).
     129
     130If you do not have any of the middleware in your :setting:`MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES`,
     131you will have a working installation but without any CSRF protection (just as
     132you had before). It is recommended to install ``CsrfViewMiddleware`` and
     133``CsrfResponseMiddleware``, but if you are not interested in having any CSRF
     134protection, you can simply stop here.
     135
     136Assuming you have followed the above, all views in your Django site will now be
     137protected by the ``CsrfViewMiddleware``.  Contrib apps meet the requirements
     138imposed by the ``CsrfViewMiddleware`` using the template tag, and other
     139applications in your project will meet its requirements by virtue of the
     140``CsrfResponseMiddleware``.
     141
     142The next step is to update all your applications to use the template tag, as
     143described in `How to use it`_, steps 3-4.  This can be done as soon as is
     144practical. Any applications that are updated will now require Django 1.1 or
     145later, since they will use the CSRF template tag library which was not available
     146in earlier versions.
     147
     148Finally, once all applications are upgraded, ``CsrfResponseMiddleware`` can be
     149removed from your settings.
     150
     151While ``CsrfResponseMiddleware`` is still in use, the ``csrf_response_exempt``
     152decorator, described in `Exceptions`_, may be useful.  The post-processing
     153middleware imposes a performance hit, and any views that have been upgraded to
     154use the new template tag method no longer need it.  Using this decorator will
     155allow you to avoid this performance hit.

    47 To manually exclude a view function from being handled by the
    48 CsrfMiddleware, you can use the ``csrf_exempt`` decorator, found in
    49 the ``django.contrib.csrf.middleware`` module. For example::
     162To manually exclude a view function from being handled by either of the two CSRF
     163middleware, you can use the ``csrf_exempt`` decorator, found in the
     164``django.contrib.csrf.middleware`` module. For example::
    50165
    51166    from django.contrib.csrf.middleware import csrf_exempt

    … …  
    54169        return HttpResponse('Hello world')
    55170    my_view = csrf_exempt(my_view)
    56171
    57 Like the middleware itself, the ``csrf_exempt`` decorator is composed
    58 of two parts: a ``csrf_view_exempt`` decorator and a
    59 ``csrf_response_exempt`` decorator, found in the same module.  These
    60 disable the view protection mechanism (``CsrfViewMiddleware``) and the
    61 response post-processing (``CsrfResponseMiddleware``) respectively.
    62 They can be used individually if required.

     183Rejected requests
     184=================
     185
     186By default, a '403 Forbidden' response is sent to the user if an incoming
     187request fails the checks performed by ``CsrfViewMiddleware``.  This should
     188usually only be seen when there is a genuine Cross Site Request Forgery, or
     189when, due to a programming error, the CSRF token has not been included with a
     190POST form.
     191
     192No logging is done, and the error message is not very friendly, so you may want
     193to provide your own page for handling this condition.  To do this, simply set
     194the :setting:`CSRF_FAILURE_VIEW` setting to a dotted path to your own view
     195function.
     196
    68197How it works
    69198============
    70199
    71 CsrfMiddleware does two things:
     200The CSRF protection is based on three things:
    72201
    73 1. It modifies outgoing requests by adding a hidden form field to all
    74    'POST' forms, with the name 'csrfmiddlewaretoken' and a value which is
    75    a hash of the session ID plus a secret. If there is no session ID set,
    76    this modification of the response isn't done, so there is very little
    77    performance penalty for those requests that don't have a session.
    78    (This is done by ``CsrfResponseMiddleware``).
     2021. A CSRF cookie that is set to a random value, which other sites will not have
     203   access to.
    79204
    80 2. On all incoming POST requests that have the session cookie set, it
    81    checks that the 'csrfmiddlewaretoken' is present and correct. If it
    82    isn't, the user will get a 403 error. (This is done by
    83    ``CsrfViewMiddleware``)
     205   This cookie is set by ``CsrfViewMiddleware``.
    84206
    85 This ensures that only forms that have originated from your Web site
    86 can be used to POST data back.
     2072. A hidden form field with the name 'csrfmiddlewaretoken' present in all
     208   outgoing POST forms.  The value of this field is the contents of the CSRF
     209   cookie.
    87210
     211   This part is done by the template tag (and with the legacy method, it is done
     212   by ``CsrfResponseMiddleware``).
     213
     2143. For all incoming POST requests that have the CSRF cookie set, the
     215   'csrfmiddlewaretoken' must be present and correct. If it isn't, the user will
     216   get a 403 error.
     217
     218   This check is done by ``CsrfViewMiddleware``.
     219
     220This ensures that only forms that have originated from your Web site can be used
     221to POST data back.
     222
    88223It deliberately only targets HTTP POST requests (and the corresponding POST
    89 forms). GET requests ought never to have any potentially dangerous side
    90 effects (see `9.1.1 Safe Methods, HTTP 1.1, RFC 2616`_), and so a
    91 CSRF attack with a GET request ought to be harmless.
     224forms). GET requests ought never to have any potentially dangerous side effects
     225(see `9.1.1 Safe Methods, HTTP 1.1, RFC 2616`_), and so a CSRF attack with a GET
     226request ought to be harmless.
    92227
    93 POST requests that are not accompanied by a session cookie are not protected,
    94 but they do not need to be protected, since the 'attacking' Web site
    95 could make these kind of requests anyway.
     228If the user has never visited the site before, and their browser makes a POST
     229request to the site, there will be no CSRF cookie, and no CSRF check will be
     230done. However, this is harmless, since if the user has never visited the site
     231before, they will not have any authentication that could be abused.
    96232
    97 The Content-Type is checked before modifying the response, and only
    98 pages that are served as 'text/html' or 'application/xml+xhtml'
    99 are modified.
     233The Content-Type is checked before modifying the response, and only pages that
     234are served as 'text/html' or 'application/xml+xhtml' are modified.
    100235
    101236The middleware tries to be smart about requests that come in via AJAX. Many
    102237JavaScript toolkits send an "X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest" HTTP header;
    … …  
    112247Limitations
    113248===========
    114249
    115 CsrfMiddleware requires Django's session framework to work. If you have
    116 a custom authentication system that manually sets cookies and the like,
    117 it won't help you.
    118 
    119 If your app creates HTML pages and forms in some unusual way, (e.g.
    120 it sends fragments of HTML in JavaScript document.write statements)
    121 you might bypass the filter that adds the hidden field to the form,
    122 in which case form submission will always fail.  It may still be possible
    123 to use the middleware, provided you can find some way to get the
    124 CSRF token and ensure that is included when your form is submitted.
     250If you are using ``CsrfResponseMiddleware`` and your app creates HTML pages and
     251forms in some unusual way, (e.g.  it sends fragments of HTML in JavaScript
     252document.write statements) you might bypass the filter that adds the hidden
     253field to the form, in which case form submission will always fail.  It may still
     254be possible to use this middleware, provided you use the template tag or
     255:meth:`django.contrib.csrf.middleware.get_token` to get the CSRF token and
     256ensure that is included when your form is submitted.
