Class RestCsrfPreventionFilter

java.lang.Object

org.apache.hadoop.security.http.RestCsrfPreventionFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.servlet.Filter

@Public
@Evolving
public class RestCsrfPreventionFilter
extends Object
implements javax.servlet.Filter

This filter provides protection against cross site request forgery (CSRF) attacks for REST APIs. Enabling this filter on an endpoint results in the requirement of all client to send a particular (configurable) HTTP header with every request. In the absense of this header the filter will reject the attempt as a bad request.

Method Details

init

public void init(javax.servlet.FilterConfig filterConfig)
          throws javax.servlet.ServletException

Specified by:

init in interface javax.servlet.Filter

Throws:

javax.servlet.ServletException

isBrowser

protected boolean isBrowser(String userAgent)

This method interrogates the User-Agent String and returns whether it refers to a browser. If its not a browser, then the requirement for the CSRF header will not be enforced; if it is a browser, the requirement will be enforced.

A User-Agent String is considered to be a browser if it matches any of the regex patterns from browser-useragent-regex; the default behavior is to consider everything a browser that matches the following: "^Mozilla.*,^Opera.*". Subclasses can optionally override this method to use different behavior.

Parameters:

userAgent - The User-Agent String, or null if there isn't one

Returns:

true if the User-Agent String refers to a browser, false if not

handleHttpInteraction

public void handleHttpInteraction(org.apache.hadoop.security.http.RestCsrfPreventionFilter.HttpInteraction httpInteraction)
                           throws IOException,
javax.servlet.ServletException

Handles an RestCsrfPreventionFilter.HttpInteraction by applying the filtering logic.

Parameters:

httpInteraction - caller's HTTP interaction

Throws:

IOException - if there is an I/O error

javax.servlet.ServletException - if the implementation relies on the servlet API and a servlet API call has failed

doFilter

public void doFilter(javax.servlet.ServletRequest request,
 javax.servlet.ServletResponse response,
 javax.servlet.FilterChain chain)
              throws IOException,
javax.servlet.ServletException

Specified by:

doFilter in interface javax.servlet.Filter

Throws:

IOException

javax.servlet.ServletException

destroy

public void destroy()

Specified by:

destroy in interface javax.servlet.Filter

getFilterParams

public static Map<String,String> getFilterParams(Configuration conf,
 String confPrefix)

Constructs a mapping of configuration properties to be used for filter initialization. The mapping includes all properties that start with the specified configuration prefix. Property names in the mapping are trimmed to remove the configuration prefix.

Parameters:

conf - configuration to read

confPrefix - configuration prefix

Returns:

mapping of configuration properties to be used for filter initialization
