The GET method should never be used when sensitive data such as credit card is being sent to a
CGI program. This is because any GET command will appear in the URL, and will be logged by
any servers. For example, let’s say that you’ve entered your credit card information into a form that
uses the GET method. The URL may appear like this:
https://www.xsecurity-bank.com/creditcard.asp?cardnumber=453453433532234
The GET method appends the credit card number to the URL. This means that anyone with
access to a server log will be able to obtain this information. How would you protect from this type
of attack?
