Uploading files larger than 70kb CSRF Mismatch error in Sails.js using skipper-gridfs adapter

[Mitchel Blais]

I am using sails version 0.12.3 and skipper-gridfs and when I upload a file larger than 70kb I get a CSRF Mismatch error. Why is that? I have tried to set the headers with the CSRF Token however that does not seem to work. 

Here is my form:

<form id="uploadForm" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="/UploadProfileImg/upload" method="post" style="margin-left: 10px">

      <h2 style="text-align: center">Upload Profile Image...</h2>

      <input type="hidden" name="id" value="<%= req.session.User.id %>" /><br/>

<!-- Select Profile Image File Button -->

<div class="input-group" style="width: 40%; margin: 0 auto;">

 <span class="input-group-btn">

   <span class="btn btn-info" onclick="$(this).parent().find('input[type=file]').click();">Browse</span>

   <input name="uploadFile" onchange="$(this).parent().parent().find('.form-control').html($(this).val().split(/[\\|/]/).pop());" style="display: none;" type="file">

 </span>

</div><br/>

    <input type="submit" value="submit" class="btn btn-primary" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto"/>

    <input type="hidden" id="csrfField" name="_csrf" value="<%= _csrf %>" />

</form>

And here is my code to upload the files in my upload controller

upload: function(req, res) {

console.log(req.param('_csrf'));

   if (req.method === 'GET')

       return res.json({ 'status': 'GET not allowed' });

   // Call to /upload via GET is error

   var uploadFile = req.file('uploadFile');

   uploadFile.upload({

     adapter: require('skipper-gridfs'),

     uri: 'mongodb://localhost:27017/reaam.user',

     headers: { 

    'X-CSRF-TOKEN': req.param('_csrf') 

    }

     

   }, function (err, filesUploaded) {

     if (err) return res.negotiate(err);

     //console.log(filesUploaded[0].extra);

     var userId = req.session.User.id;

     var userObj = {

      //Adds the encrypted filename to user.profileimage field record for user being edited

profileimage: filesUploaded[0].extra.fd 

};

      User.update(userId, userObj, function userUpdated(err){

if(err){

res.json(err);

}

});  

     return res.redirect('/user/show/' + req.param('id'));

   }); 

}
