Description

Kazuki Shimizu (Migrated from SEC-2403) said:

I think so that CsrfFileter and CsrfRequestDataValueProcessor is not consistent on policy of injection.

Reasons is following:

CsrfFileter is able to inject the http method of processing target. But, CsrfRequestDataValueProcessor is not able to inject the http method of processing target. Http method of processing target is fixed in private constants.

I think so that should be use same strategy for determine the http method of processing target.

What do you think ?
