    199199
    200 Nathan Wilcox has discovered that the new web API in allmydata-tahoe
    201 version 0.5 is vulnerable to XSRF attack.  An XSRF — or "Cross-Site
    202 Reference Forgery" attack — is one in which an attacker creates an
    203 innocuous-looking hyperlink, and if a user clicks on that hyperlink
    204 then it causes deletion or theft of the user's data.  We are working
    205 on a fix for this problem, and in the meantime if you have stored any
    206 private or precious data on a tahoe grid, then you can make sure that
    207 you are not exposed to this threat by shutting down your tahoe node
    208 before browsing the web.
