I got the similar issue, 

i have hosted my dropbox project in a server, when multiple people try to auth use dropbox auth at same time , it creates CSRF mismatch problem.

Example 

A user comes to site and click on auth csrf set in session and redirected to dropbox page  to authorize (https://www.dropbox.com/1/oauth2/authorize) and same time another user click to auth now csrf changed and redirected to dropbox page to authorize. So when first user come to via redirected URI , CSRF MISMATCH problem occurs.

 

is there way to customize my app?
