$user_settings['facebook_message'] = $_REQUEST['facebook_message'];

$user_settings['facebook_message'] = '';
if ( !empty( $_REQUEST['facebook_linkname'] ) )
$user_settings['facebook_linkname'] = $_REQUEST['facebook_linkname'];
else
$user_settings['facebook_linkname'] = '';
if ( !empty( $_REQUEST['facebook_caption'] ) )
$user_settings['facebook_caption'] = $_REQUEST['facebook_caption'];

<td><textarea name="facebook_message" style="width: 500px;"
maxlength="400"><?php
echo $user_settings['facebook_message']; ?></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><?php _e( 'Default Link Name:', 'leenkme'
); ?></td>
<td><input name="facebook_linkname"
type="text" style="width: 500px;" value="<?php echo
$user_settings['facebook_linkname']; ?>" maxlength="100"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><?php _e( 'Default Caption:', 'leenkme' );
?></td>
<td><input name="facebook_caption"
type="text" style="width: 500px;" value="<?php echo
$user_settings['facebook_caption']; ?>" maxlength="100"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style='vertical-align: top; padding-top:
5px;'><?php _e( 'Default Description:', 'leenkme' ); ?></td>
<td><textarea name="facebook_description"
style="width: 500px;" maxlength="300"><?php echo
$user_settings['facebook_description']; ?></textarea></td>
The code used to protect against CSRF that is the anti csrf token used is
<?php wp_nonce_field( 'fb_publish', 'fb_publish_wpnonce' ); ?>
But this code is not protecting against the CSRF, the form get submitted
successfully with out any error even though the fb_publish_wpnonce is kept
empty resulting in CSRF vulnerability.
