Basically anything triggering an action can be affected. The action ca be triggered involuntarily on the users behalf, that's the actual problem. A CSRF Token prevents this.
Publishing a post, deleting your account, changing profile name, posting this comment, liking a post, ....
Depends on the application.
Hm, that was a bad example.

I see, that's make sense. That's why CSRF Token will be regenerated for every request. Thanks, gonna read that soon
but, what if I alr handle that using token based auth? do I still need that?
