Manual:Edit token/vi

Dấu hiệu sửa đổi (còn được gọi dấu hiệu CSRF) là một chuỗi ngẫu nhiên được gửi giữa trình khách và máy chủ MediaWiki khi thực hiện các tác vụ thay đổi trang. Dấu hiệu nhằm kiểm tra rằng người dùng thực sự có ý muốn thực hiện thay đổi, thay vì bị lừa đảo yêu cầu thay đổi tại wiki trong khi truy cập một trang mạng bên ngoài (tức giả mạo yêu cầu chéo trang).

Tại sao cần thiết?
Edit tokens are used as an additional security measure when performing changes. If the user identity were checked using cookies only, an external site could use a link like the following one to have visitors perform changes to the wiki.

Following such a link would lead an administrator to unknowingly request deletion of an image. If the administrator is still logged in, the server would check the cookies and grant the request.

For this reason, actions that perform changes require an additional piece of data that is passed as an HTTP parameter, the edit token. An edit token is embedded into web pages from which the user can request a change; this includes the edit form (where one can change a page by pressing "") but also the image description pages (where an administrator can request deletion of an old version of an image), contributor histories (where administrators can rollback), etc.

When the user actually requests the change to be done (by pressing a button or following a link), the edit token is sent back to the server. This proves to the server that the user has requested the change directly from the site and not from an external site, as external sites do not have access to the edit tokens of the user.

Cách thức hoạt động
An edit token is a random string stored in the PHP session, which is an associative array that is stored in the server and maintained across sessions because of a cookie (e.g.,  on the English Wikipedia). The edit token is in particular contained in the  element of the PHP session.

Edit tokens are embedded into web pages from where the user can request a change. When such a page is to be generated, the edit token is retrieved from the  element of the PHP session, if such an element exists; otherwise, a random string is generated and stored in that element.

What is actually embedded into the web page is not the  element itself. Rather, this element is concatenated to the salt, which is a string that depends on the particular action and page; the resulting string is then MD5-hashed; this is what is embedded in the web page. When the user actually requests the action, this string is sent back to the server via an HTTP parameter. The server can then check the correctness of this parameter: it repeats the procedure used to generate it from the PHP session and checks if the result is equal to the parameter.

Tính hợp lệ
The edit token returned by the server can be reused multiple times for different edit operations. The token is only valid for a specific period of time. API call with a stale token will return a badtoken error. In this case it is necessary to get a new edit token from the server before retrying the operation.

Mã nguồn
Edit tokens are mainly dealt with in the User.php source file, and in particular by the following methods.
 * getEditToken(salt) : returns the MD5 hash of the concatenation of the  element of the PHP session with the salt. If such an element does not exist in the PHP session, a random one is generated. See getEditToken function in repository.
 * matchEditToken(token, salt) : checks whether its first argument is a valid edit token with respect to the salt; this is done by repeating the procedure of generation and then comparing the result with the first argument; in particular, this function calls  and then compares the result with the first argument;

Giá trị ngẫu nhiên (salt)
The default salt is the empty string; most actions use this default value. As a result, an edit token string received from a server to perform an initial action on a page can also be used to perform additional actions on other pages. However, since an edit token is stored in the PHP session, it can be used only as long as the session is kept in the server and the client has the corresponding session token cookie (e.g., the enwiki_session cookie).

An edit-token-hash generated using a salt can be used for performing additional actions only if the salt used by both server and client is the same. Therefore it follows that if the salt is only embedded in the page where the initial action is performed, then that same edit-token-hash cannot be used to enable actions on additional pages.


 * Actions not using the default empty salt are:


 * rollback : the salt is the title of the article (including the namespace prefix) concatenated with the name of the user whose edits are to be reverted;


 * delete the old version of an image : the salt is the  parameter (when deleting all version this parameter is the empty string, which is also the default salt);
 * Special:UserRights : the salt is the username of the user whose properties are to be changed;
 * Special:Watchlist/clear : the salt is the string 'clearwatchlist'

Hậu tố dấu hiệu sửa đổi
Edit tokens end with  to prevent broken proxies from editing: proxies that cannot correctly handle the backslash or plus sign typically also mess up the wiki markup code.

In 1.18 and higher, you do not need to retrieve the edit token using AJAX. It's available as. Note that you need to have defined mediawiki.user as a ResourceLoader dependency for your module. It is recommended that you use the  helper method, which automatically takes care of retries if the token has expired since the web page was loaded.
