sailing123 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Sorry, me again ! I keep getting this message every so often:"Security Alert: Possible Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) or browser back button used."Do I need to worry about this or am I doing something wrong here ? I am only amending text in site docs or products in the back end. I did not use any rbowser back button from what I can remember, just the save button.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 This is a tough nut to crack. The most reasonable situation I have come across that throws this message is when the browser's "user-agent" string changes (or when the IP address, rarely, changes).I am of the opinion that Chrome wants to update itself (complete with new version numbers) about 17 times a day.I have also seen some weirdness where an admin will be using four or five completely different browsers (maybe just changing the u-a string to see what would happen) from the same IP address. Based on the evidence of the myriad of u-a strings, I initially thought that the admin was using a mobile device incorporated into their desktop, so as to share the same cookie. But I honestly don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Butter Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I imagine we ALL do who are on later versions. So much so that it reminds me of all the Men Working roadway signs where no one is working - no wonder many people ignore the signs LOL.
