Cross-Site Request Forgery is a major problem when it comes to browsing the web. If an attacker were to craft a request toward a server that performs an action, the request would contain any identifying cookies you have. As pointed out in academic literature, this can be used to empty bank accounts, change passwords, or anything in between.
This extension attempts to prevent Cross-Site Request Forgery by stripping cookies from any (non-GET) request that does not follow the same-origin policy. In this way, normal browsing remains uninterrupted while any possible CRSF attacks are blocked!
The extension is easily disabled and contains a small report of all requests which had cookies stripped.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
