Now a days, most of the people use internet for their business and commercial use. This advancement of technology make our daily life better but there are so many risks due to some web applications vulnerabilities. Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attack is one of those common vulnerabilities, but it is less known to web developers as compared to others so it can be found easily in web applications. In CSRF attack an attacker forces victim´s web browser to perform an unwanted action on a trusted website without user´s interaction in that action.
