To indicate what IP addresses should be permitted or denied in access control lists (ACLs). A wildcard mask can be thought of as an inverted subnet mask . For example, a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 ( 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 2 ) inverts to a wildcard mask of 0.0.0.255 ( 00000000.00000000.00000000.11111111 2 ).
An attacker may forge a request to log the victim into a target website using the attacker's credentials; this is known as login CSRF. Login CSRF makes various novel attacks possible; for instance, an attacker can later log into the site with their legitimate credentials and view private information like activity history that has been saved in ...
