Netlify Identity package update: CSRF protection with new `verifyRequestOrigin` helper
UpdateUnverifiedAdded Sep 24, 2026
@netlify/identity 1.1.0 introduces a new verifyRequestOrigin helper to make it easier for developers and AI agents to add CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) protection when running authentication on the server. You can call login(), signup(), or logout() from a Netlify Function or Edge Function to handle authentication entirely on the server.
