Unable to login, CSRF verification failed

[spiwocoal]

I can't seem to send code to Leetcode from Emacs, every time I try using leetcode-try, I get an error with status code 499, and a HTML doc saying the CSRF verification failed, and that I need to enable cookies on my browser. The part with the status code is:

Weird thing is, I checked my_cookies was working properly and that Emacs had access to the appropriate cookies (and that I was logged in to Leetcode), so I have no idea why this could be happening.

• OS: OpenSuse Tumbleweed
• Browser: Firefox 89.0.2
• Emacs 27.2 with Doom v3.0.0-alpha

I'm having the same issue, 499 status code, CSRF verification failed. Perhaps Leetcode changed something?

I tested it with Doom Emacs on mac, using Chrome, and it works fine...

[spiwocoal]

i am using Firefox, maybe that's why...

once i get home i will try using chromium, if that doesn't work either i'll try using another distro

I'm having this problem as well. I use Arch Linux, and have logged in to leetcode web interface in both Firefox and Chromium.

Same here. I can see leetcode session from my_cookies command but 499 returned.

I have the same, and I believe that token that leetcode.el extracts from the browser gets invalidated once you visit leetcode.el again with browser.
