[Bamboo Knowledge Base]
To prevent users being tricked into unintentionally submitting malicious data, Bamboo uses XSRF security protection.
Atlassian supported plugins have been updated to support XSRF. XSRF protection is enabled by default for Atlassian Cloud customers and new customers for the server version, however, if you are using a plugin that is not yet compatible with this security feature, you can disable it.
Please carefully consider the security risks before you disable XSRF protection in your Bamboo installation.
