Commentary on Digger's self-digging story, used to explain cross-site request forgery: a third-party page redirects an authenticated user into a site function, which then executes as that user. Argues that requiring POST instead of GET is a common but ineffective fix, easily defeated by injected HTML or by frameworks that ignore the method.
