How does a CSRF token work

0 votes
I’m exploring CSRF protection for my application and would like to understand how CSRF tokens function in preventing unauthorized actions. How exactly does the token get generated, validated, and verified in a typical web application workflow?

Any examples or explanations of how CSRF tokens are implemented in frameworks like Django or Express would be helpful.
