Adding a extra token for protection against CSRF attacks will only work if is changed on each request. Some of the biggest sites out there do not do this. I know of one site in particular (I won't name it, but its HUGE) that generates a unique token every time a user logs in. The token doesn't change until the user logs out even if the user closes the browser and doesn't go back to the site for a week, the token will be the same. So it does its job, until somebody like me pokes around and finds a hole that will parse out that token, and generate a form that can make any request on behalf of that user in a iframe without that user knowing a thing. Evil yes, but I found this months ago, and it still works..and I haven't used it in anyway, besides a proof of concept.
