  Many millions of users routinely use their Google, Facebook and Microsoft
accounts to log in to websites supporting OAuth 2.0 and/or OpenID Connect-based
single sign on. The security of OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect is therefore of
critical importance, and it has been widely examined both in theory and in
practice. Unfortunately, as these studies have shown, real-world
implementations of both schemes are often vulnerable to attack, and in
particular to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. In this paper we
propose a new technique which can be used to mitigate CSRF attacks against both
OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect.
