README

Easy as fuck CSRF protection library for PHP based on OWASP recommandations.

Installation

Using composer:

composer require madeorsk/nocsrf

Getting started

Easy example code:

use NoCSRF\NoCSRF;

// Creating a new NoCSRF instance, which manages anti-CSRF tokens.
$nocsrf = new NoCSRF();

// Get an anti-CSRF token (to add in a hidden input field or a request header).
$token = $nocsrf->getToken();

// Verify anti-CSRF token.
if ($nocsrf->verify($token))
	echo "Anti-CSRF token is VALID!";
else
	echo "Anti-CSRF token is INVALID.";

Custom modules

NoCSRF is made of three main components:

  • The KeyGenerator: generate a key, in the default implementation it is an OpenSSL random key generator.
  • The KeyStorage : store the key used in token generation / verification. The key storage need to keep the key in such a way that it is available for a specific session, but cannot be retrievable by the client.
  • The TokenManager : contain token generation / verification logic. The key is provided.

You can create custom classes for these three components. You can chose which module to use in the NoCSRF initialization:

$nocsrf = new NoCSRF([
	"keyGenerator" => new OpensslKeyGenerator(16),
	"keyStorage" => new SessionKeyStorage(),
	"tokenManager" => new HMACTokenManager(),
]);

The components used in this example are the default values.
