详解 CSRF 与 XSS 攻击
在之前的一篇文章中,提到了 WordPress 的插件审核机制,其中对于代码安全性的要求,主要就是对 CSRF 与 XSS 攻击的防范。官方邮件中这样写道:
Not using Nonces and/or checking permissions
Please add a nonce to your POST calls to prevent unauthorized access.
Keep in mind, check_admin_referer alone is NOT bulletproof security. Do not rely on nonces for authorization purposes. Use current_user_can() in order to prevent users without the right permissions from accessing things.
Please sanitize, escape, and validate your POST calls
When you include POST/GET/REQUEST/FILE calls in your plugin, it's important to sanitize, validate, and escape them. The goal here is to prevent a user from accidentally sending trash data through the system, as well as protecting them from potential security issues.
SANITIZE: Data that is input (either by a user or automatically) must be sanitized. This lessens the possibility of XSS vulnerabilities and MITM attacks where posted data is subverted.
VALIDATE: All data should be validated as much as possible. Even when you sanitize, remember that you don't want someone putting in 'dog' when the only valid values are numbers.
ESCAPE: Data that is output must be escaped properly, so it can't hijack admin screens. There are many esc_*() functions you can use to make sure you don't show people the wrong data.
To help you with this, WordPress comes with a number of sanitization and escaping functions. You can read about those here: https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/security/securing-input/
Remember: You must use the MOST appropriate functions for the context. If you're sanitizing email, use sanitize_email(), if you're outputting HTML, use esc_html(), and so on.
Clean everything, check everything, escape everything, and never trust the users to always have input sane data.
