Non-HttpOnly rn_csrf_s/rn_csrf_i cookies, set on login, echoed back as X-CSRF-Token on every
state-changing request — defense in depth on top of (not instead of) SameSite=Lax. In-memory
sliding-window rate limiting on instructor login (8 attempts / 5 min per ip:email, no new
dependency).
Real bug found while wiring this up: the Gateway's own progress-relay call (triggered when a
student solves a scenario) is a server-to-server POST to /api/progress/record relaying the
browser's session — it needs to forward the CSRF token too, and needs to forward BOTH the
rn_csrf_s cookie and a matching X-CSRF-Token header (forwarding only the header still 403'd,
since the double-submit check needs both on the request Platform API actually receives).
Also tightens the Gateway's session-resolution cache from 5000ms to 2000ms, so a
revoked/expired session stops working at the Gateway within a tighter, tested bound.
Frontend (admin + student API clients) now reads the relevant rn_csrf_* cookie via
document.cookie and attaches it on every POST/PATCH/DELETE.
