What is the best practice to secure your facebook chatbot webhook?

问题

I am playing around with developing a chatbot on facebook messenger platform. I went through the Facebook document and couldn't find how to protect my webhook from random calls.

For example, if users can buy stuffs with my bots, an attacker that knows someone's userId can start placing unauthorized orders by making calls to my webhook.

I have several ideas on how to protect this.

1) Whitelist my api to only calls from facebook.
2) Create something like CSRF tokens with the postback calls.

Any ideas?

Facebook has of course already implemented a mechanism by which you can check if requests made to your callback URL are genuine (everything else would just be negligence on their part) – see https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/webhooks#receiveupdates:

The HTTP request will contain an X-Hub-Signature header which contains the SHA1 signature of the request payload, using the app secret as the key, and prefixed with sha1=. Your callback endpoint can verify this signature to validate the integrity and origin of the payload

Please note that the calculation is made on the escaped unicode version of the payload, with lower case hex digits. If you just calculate against the decoded bytes, you will end up with a different signature. For example, the string äöå should be escaped to \u00e4\u00f6\u00e5.
