## Features
FastAPI extension that provides stateless Cross-Site Request Forgery (XSRF) Protection support.
Aimed to be easy to use and lightweight, we adopt [Double Submit Cookie](https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Cross-Site_Request_Forgery_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet.html#double-submit-cookie) mitigation pattern.
If you were familiar with `flask-wtf` library this extension suitable for you.
This extension inspired by `fastapi-jwt-auth` 😀
- Storing `fastapi-csrf-token` in cookies or serve it in template's context
## Installation
The easiest way to start working with this extension with pip
```bash
pip install fastapi-csrf-protect
# or
uv add fastapi-csrf-protect
```
## Getting Started
The following examples show you how to integrate this extension to a FastAPI App
### Example Login Form
```python
from fastapi import FastAPI, Request, Depends
from fastapi.responses import JSONResponse
from fastapi.templating import Jinja2Templates
from fastapi_csrf_protect import CsrfProtect
from fastapi_csrf_protect.exceptions import CsrfProtectError
from pydantic_settings import BaseSettings
app = FastAPI()
templates = Jinja2Templates(directory="templates")
class CsrfSettings(BaseSettings):
secret_key: str = "asecrettoeverybody"
cookie_samesite: str = "none"
@CsrfProtect.load_config
def get_csrf_config():
return CsrfSettings()
@app.get("/login")
def form(request: Request, csrf_protect: CsrfProtect = Depends()):
"""
Returns form template.
"""
csrf_token, signed_token = csrf_protect.generate_csrf_tokens()
response = templates.TemplateResponse(
"form.html", {"request": request, "csrf_token": csrf_token}
)
csrf_protect.set_csrf_cookie(signed_token, response)
return response
@app.post("/login", response_class=JSONResponse)
async def create_post(request: Request, csrf_protect: CsrfProtect = Depends()):
"""
Creates a new Post
"""
await csrf_protect.validate_csrf(request)
response: JSONResponse = JSONResponse(status_code=200, content={"detail": "OK"})
csrf_protect.unset_csrf_cookie(response) # prevent token reuse
return response
@app.exception_handler(CsrfProtectError)
def csrf_protect_exception_handler(request: Request, exc: CsrfProtectError):
return JSONResponse(status_code=exc.status_code, content={"detail": exc.message})
```
## Contributions
### Prerequisites
* [python](https://www.python.org) version 3.9 and above
* [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv)
### Setting up
The following guide walks through setting up your local working environment using `pyenv`
as Python version manager and `uv` as Python package manager. If you do not have `pyenv`
installed, run the following command.
Install using Homebrew (Darwin)
```sh
brew install pyenv --head
```
Install using standalone installer (Darwin and Linux)
```sh
curl https://pyenv.run | bash
```
If you do not have `uv` installed, run the following command.
Install using Homebrew (Darwin)
```sh
brew install uv
```
Install using standalone installer (Darwin and Linux)
```sh
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
```
Once you have `pyenv` Python version manager installed, you can
install any version of Python above version 3.9 for this project.
The following commands help you set up and activate a Python virtual
environment where `uv` can download project dependencies from the `PyPI`
open-sourced registry defined under `pyproject.toml` file.
Set up environment and synchronize project dependencies
```sh
pyenv shell 3.11.9
uv venv --python-preference system
source .venv/bin/activate
```
### Getting started
To contribute to the project, fork the repository and clone to your local device
and install preferred testing dependency [pytest](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest)
Alternatively, run the following command on your terminal to do so:
```bash
uv sync --dev
```
Testing can be done by the following command post-installation:
```bash
uv sync --dev --extras test
pytest
```
## Changelog
### 🚧 Breaking Changes (0.3.0 -> 0.3.1) The double submit update
* The `generate_csrf` method has now been marked for deprecation
* The recommended method is now `generate_csrf_tokens` which returns a tuple of tokens, first unsigned
and the latter signed
* Recommended pattern is for the first token is aimed for returning as part of context
* Recommended pattern is for the signed token to be set in client's cookie completing [Double Submit Cookie](https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Cross-Site_Request_Forgery_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet.html#double-submit-cookie)
* To prevent token reuse, protected endpoint can unset the signed CSRF Token in client's cookies as
per example code and recommended pattern.
### 🚧 Breaking Changes (0.3.1 -> 0.3.2) The anti-JavaScript update
* New keys are added at setup `token_location` (either `body` or `header`) and `token_key` is key
where form-encoded keeps the csrf token stored, cross-checked with csrf secret in cookies.
* Asynchronous `validate_csrf` method now needs to be awaited therefore protected endpoints need to
be asynchronous as well.
### Error in version 0.3.5 after updating to Pydantic V2
* Made a blunder when updating from Pydantic V1 to Pydantic V2 and caused an error to occur when
setting `cookie_samesite` in settings
* Fixed in version `0.3.6`
### Version 1.0
* Remove deprecated method `generate_csrf`, please use `generate_csrf_tokens`.
* Validate `FormData` value received for given `token_key` is in fact a string, not `UploadFile`
### Run Examples
To run the provided examples, first you must install extra dependencies [uvicorn](https://github.com/encode/uvicorn) and [jinja2](https://github.com/pallets/jinja/)
Alternatively, run the following command on your terminal to do so
```bash
uv sync --extras examples
```
Running the example utilizing form submission
```bash
uvicorn examples.body:app
```
Running the example utilizing headers via JavaScript
```bash
uvicorn examples.header:app
```
