Today, I have started doing some more security upgrades to my site, and because of that, some of you may experince some errors. If you do, contact me through Discord and I will try to help you. If you experince any bugs and you are un able to login here, then defently contact me on Discord.

What have I been up to?

I have been developing a CSRF Token system that will add additional security layer to Evo.

What is that?

In laymans terms, imagine you have a website without CSRF protection, if a malicious site tricks a visitor into clicking a link while they’re logged into your site, it could trigger actions, like changing account settings, without permission. CSRF tokens act as a secret code for each form, ensuring that any action taken is from your site and not an outside trick. This way, users actions on your gaming site are secure.

Since I have been working on the security python script, it opened my eyes that there are a bunch of small things that need to get done. I know Evo is still small, but, security is security and there are still people that use it, like me.

So, again, if you run into any problems, reach out to me and I will see what I can do. You can get the Discord information off the home page of the site here, our you can send me a PM on the Evo website.

I have done another update on the site here, which includes securing up the cookies. By doing the changes, there are some risk of some issues, so, if anyone runs into any issues with not being to download something, or something acts wonky, not staying logged in, not being able to log in, or anything, let me know. If everything goes well, I will be sending the changes to Lonestar for addition into the next release of the CMS.
