Django CSRF protection disabled on a view

highFramework-awareframework:djangoCWE-352python

What it detects

`@csrf_exempt` turns off CSRF protection for a view. A state-changing view without CSRF protection can be triggered cross-site on behalf of an authenticated user.

How it runs

Gated on framework detection: the repo's manifests (package.json, requirements.txt, pom.xml, Gemfile, composer.json) are read to identify the stack, and the rule only runs against matching-language files when its framework is present.
