This will affect all API consumers from web apps to CLIs and curl. > Since CSRF is primarily a browser based attack we can try and minimize the impact on non-browser clients. > This enhancement will provide additional configuration for identifying non-browser useragents and skipping the enforcement of the header requirement for anything identified as a non-browser. This will largely limit the impact to browser based PUT and POST calls when configured appropriately. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
