Description

The API can be accessed with our SSO implementations (e.g. REMOTE_USER, mod_auth_kerb), an existing session (#4776, #4895) or the HTTP basic auth "SSO" impl.

When using SSO impls, we should employ some CSRF protection so a user with say, an active Kerberos ticket, can't be attacked to perform API requests using their active SSO.

See https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/pull/1331#issuecomment-39075332 for some background.
