Express/NodeJS: Use CSRF Protection, but allow Cross Domain Requests for Specific Domains












1















I have two websites. For simplicity, one is www.example1.com and the other is www.example2.com. For both websites (which are built with nodeJS and expressJS), I am using cookie-parser and csurf to prevent csrf attacks. The only thing is that I want to be able to send a POST request from www.example2.com to www.example1.com. How would I do this?
