Additional Information


HTTP Response Requires Script Execution (FSCOWS@1.1001:friendlyurldefaultcsp) Permanent link for this heading

By help of the content security policy (CSP) settings (see property cspdirectives of DefaultConfiguration) CSP directives may be applied for friendly URL requests (e.g. you may configure that the execution of scripts should be disabled when executing requests for friendly URLs). You may set this option to true if the CSP directives of ordinary http requests should be used for requests for this friendly URL, too.
For a detailed description to content security policy refer to: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSP2/

boolean FSCOWS@1.1001:friendlyurldefaultcsp

Additional Information


Content Input Parameter (FSCOWS@1.1001:friendlyurlincont) Permanent link for this heading

In the parameter with this name, the incoming HTTP request's body is passed to the friendly URL action. The parameter can be of type CONTENT or STRING.

string FSCOWS@1.1001:friendlyurlincont

Additional Information


Action Will not Change State (FSCOWS@1.1001:friendlyurlisreadonly) Permanent link for this heading

The friendly URL action will not change any state. In that case the cross site request forgery check is turned off for this kind of URLs (see csrf and csrffurlwhitelist for more details).
CSRF attacks specifically target state-changing requests and not theft of data, since the attacker has no way to see the response to the forged request.
Therefore, if the friendly URL action (friendlyurlaction) or actions called by the friendly URL action will change any state this property must not be set to true.

boolean FSCOWS@1.1001:friendlyurlisreadonly
