Money Transfer (CSRF)

Free3 Points

Overview

Money Transfer (CSRF) focuses on a transaction flow where a browser session can be used to submit an unintended state-changing request.

This lab applies Cross-Site Request Forgery to a financial-style action where the application must verify both the user session and the intent behind the request.

Security Impact​

CSRF in money transfer workflows can cause unauthorized transactions, balance changes, fraud risk, and loss of trust in account activity.

Vulnerability Scope​

Transfer forms, payment actions, billing settings, admin operations, and cookie-authenticated APIs are exposed when state changes do not require anti-CSRF protection.

Lab Focus​

The lab focuses on CSRF-prone transaction requests, request intent protections, and why anti-CSRF controls matter most in financial and account-impacting workflows.
