Java : Hidden HTML field

Classification

Overview

The application uses a hidden field.

The developer could assume that users would not see the hidden field and would not be able to manipulate the data transferred through it. It is not so: attackers can transfer data, including malicious data, to hidden fields.

A hidden field must not be used to transfer valuable information. Its contents are cached by the browser, which can lead to data confidentiality loss.
