note 110899 added to function.md5

A random MD5 hash could be used per session to block cross site request forgeries (CSRF) For example: http://us2.php.net/manual/vote-note.php?id=XXXXX&page=function.hash-algos&vote=up You could really just link to the up arrow of this post and have my post up voted to the top easily. But if you had a random hash for the session this could not be done! ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 76.72.171.134 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.md5.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/110899 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110899/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110899/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110899/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110899/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110899/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110899/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110899 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/110899 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
