Add 'protect_from_forgery` to turn on Rail's built-in protection.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Since the Doorkeeper controllers inherit from Doorkeeper::Application (which inherits directly from ActionController::Base) and not ApplicationController, they never call `protect_from_forgery`, which means that non-GET methods don’t validate CSRF tokens. Thus, it’s possible for an attacker to host a form on an arbitrary URL, and if a users is logged into a site that uses Doorkeeper visits the URL, the attacker can grant access to a application on that site.
