security - Are there reason why web devs dont use CSRF for login pages -
i realized few production web applications running. diddnt have csrf protection login page.
it after authentications csrf protection kicks in.
i wondering if there reasons why developers/administrators this. due heavy load of tracking anonymous users? thinking out load.
love hear of yall!
cheers

csrf involves silent exploits while user logged in browser (in tab lets say).
if not, request not anything, or reveal attack popping login form.
so, defend stupid web user harming themselves, yeah guess try carry anticsrf token. now, tell me how begin anticsrf protection again? how possibly post anticsrf token along login form first time? have land on / or else anticsrf token while receiving login page. site have login form straight in first landing page. hence browser cannot present anticsrf token on first request (cannot use cookies, because sent browser during attacking request).
anyway, that's guess.
