> CSRF prevention for REST APIs can be provided through a common servlet filter. This filter would check for the existence of an custom HTTP header - such as X-XSRF-Header.
> The fact that CSRF attacks are entirely browser based means that the above approach can ensure that requests are coming from either: applications served by the same origin as the REST API or that there is explicit policy configuration that allows the setting of a header on XmlHttpRequest from another origin.
> We have done similar work for Hadoop (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12691) and other components.
