XSRFProbe is an advanced Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF/XSRF) Audit and Exploitation Toolkit. Equipped with a powerful crawling engine and numerous systematic checks, it is able to detect most cases of CSRF vulnerabilities, their related bypasses and futher generate exploitable proof of concepts with each found vulnerability. For more info on how XSRFProbe works, see XSRFProbe Internals on wiki.

Origin: null) as well as method-override and Content-Type bypasses.--max-urls, --max-depth and --crawl-timeout).Every check XSRFProbe runs has a unique identifier. The ID is shown in the console output (e.g. [T6] VULNERABLE: ...) and stored as the test_id field of each finding in the JSON report (alongside its severity and, where relevant, an exploitability note under details), so each finding maps back to the exact test that produced it.
| ID | Category | Check |
|---|---|---|
D1 | Token presence | No anti-CSRF token present (generic request forgery) |
D2 | Token presence | Login form lacks CSRF token (login CSRF) |
T2 | Token tampering | Validation tied to request method (GET ↔ POST switch) |
T3 | Token tampering | Token can be omitted entirely |
T4 | Token tampering | Token not tied to the user session (cross-session replay) |
T5 | Token tampering | Token tied to a non-session cookie (e.g. csrfKey) |
T6 | Token tampering | Naive double-submit cookie (cookie == body, no binding) |
T7 | Token tampering | Empty token value accepted |
T8 | Token tampering | Custom-header token can be omitted or forged |
M1 | Method / Content-Type | HTTP method override via _method parameter |
M2 | Method / Content-Type | HTTP method override via X-HTTP-Method-Override header |
M4 | Method / Content-Type | Validation bypass via alternate Content-Type |
R0 | Referer | Referer header not validated on form submission |
R1 | Referer | Referer validation bypassed by omitting the header |
R2a | Referer | Referer regex bypass — target as attacker subdomain |
R2b | Referer | Referer regex bypass — target in query string |
R2c | Referer | Referer regex bypass — target in path |
O1 | Origin | Origin validation bypassed with Origin: null |
O2 | Origin | Origin validation bypassed with a subdomain trick |
O3 | Origin | Origin validation bypassed by omitting the header |
S2 | SameSite (browser) | SameSite=Strict bypass via client-side redirect gadget |
S3 | SameSite (browser) | SameSite=Strict bypass via XSS on a sibling subdomain |
S4 | SameSite (browser) | SameSite=Lax bypass via cookie-refresh / OAuth flow |
C1 | Cookie posture | Cookie SameSite attribute analysis (None/Lax/Strict) |
C2 | Cookie posture | No SameSite attribute set on cookies |
E1 | Token strength | Token uses a weak/structured hash encoding |
A1 | Token strength | Post-scan token predictability / forgeability analysis |
S*checks require the optional headless-browser integration (--browser).T*/M*/R*/O*are HTTP-level checks gated by the response diffing/benchmark engine.
Lets see some real-world scenarios of XSRFProbe in action:
For the full usage info, please take a look at the wiki's — General Usage and Advanced Usage.
XSRFProbe can be easily installed via a single command:
--browser, --auto-validate-poc) additionally require geckodriver to be available in your PATH (or pointed to via --geckodriver-path).xsrfprobe-output. Under this folder you can view the detailed logs and information collected during the scans (pass --json for a machine-readable report).XSRFProbe is currently v3.0.0 and the work is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPLv3).
Do not use this tool on a live site!
It is because this tool is designed to perform all kinds of form submissions automatically which can sabotage the site. Sometimes you may screw up the database and most probably perform a DoS on the site as well.
Test on a disposable/dummy setup/site!
Usage of XSRFProbe for testing websites without prior mutual consistency can be considered as an illegal activity. It is the final user's responsibility to obey all applicable local, state and federal laws. The author assumes no liability and is not responsible for any misuse or damage caused by this program.
This project is based entirely upon my own research and my own experience with web applications on Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks. You can try going through the source code to help you understand how this toolkit was built. Useful pull requests, ideas and issues are highly welcome.
