Web application is now part of our day to day life, and there are vulnerabilities in web application as per OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project). Most of the Web developers are unaware about CSRF attack and therefore many web applications are vulnerable from CSRF. Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks occur when a unauthentic web site forces a browser on user’s computer to send an authorized request and perform unwanted action on a trusted web site without the user’s knowledge. In this paper we will study about CSRF attack, and existing CSRF defensive mechanism. This study will help us to build strong and robust CSRF defensive mechanism.
