This PR was merged into the master branch. Discussion ---------- [Security] Added Security\Csrf sub-component with better token generation | Q | A | ------------- | --- | Bug fix? | yes | New feature? | no | BC breaks? | no | Deprecations? | no | Tests pass? | yes | Fixed tickets | - | License | MIT | Doc PR | TODO **Update September 27, 2013** This PR simplifies the CSRF mechanism to generate completely random tokens. A random token is generated once per ~~intention~~ token ID and then stored in the session. Tokens are valid until the session expires. Since the CSRF token generator depends on `StringUtils` and `SecureRandom` from Security\Core, and since Security\Http currently depends on the Form component for token generation, I decided to add a new Security\Csrf sub-component that contains the improved CSRF token generator. Consequences: * Security\Http now depends on Security\Csrf instead of Form * Form now optionally depends on Security\Csrf * The configuration for the "security.secure_random" service and the "security.csrf.*" services was moved to FrameworkBundle to guarantee BC In the new Security\Csrf sub-component, I tried to improve the naming where I could do so without breaking BC: * CSRF "providers" are now called "token generators" * CSRF "intentions" are now called "token IDs", because that's really what they are ##### TODO - [ ] The documentation needs to be checked for references to the configuration of the application secret. Remarks that the secret is used for CSRF protection need to be removed. - [ ] Add aliases "csrf_token_generator" and "csrf_token_id" for "csrf_provider" and "intention" in the SecurityBundle configuration - [x] Make sure `SecureRandom` never blocks for `CsrfTokenGenerator` Commits ------- |

What is Symfony2?
Symfony2 is a PHP 5.3 full-stack web framework. It is written with speed and flexibility in mind. It allows developers to build better and easy to maintain websites with PHP.
Symfony can be used to develop all kind of websites, from your personal blog to high traffic ones like Dailymotion or Yahoo! Answers.
Requirements
Symfony2 is only supported on PHP 5.3.3 and up.
Be warned that PHP versions before 5.3.8 are known to be buggy and might not work for you:
-
before PHP 5.3.4, if you get "Notice: Trying to get property of non-object", you've hit a known PHP bug (see https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52083 and https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50027);
-
before PHP 5.3.8, if you get an error involving annotations, you've hit a known PHP bug (see https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55156).
-
PHP 5.3.16 has a major bug in the Reflection subsystem and is not suitable to run Symfony2 (https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62715)
Installation
The best way to install Symfony2 is to download the Symfony Standard Edition available at http://symfony.com/download.
