Howard M. Lewis Ship updated TAPESTRY-1797:
-------------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 5.1
> Mechanism to send pointers to serialized data to the client, not the data
> itself
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TAPESTRY-1797
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-1797
> Project: Tapestry
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: tapestry-core
> Affects Versions: 5.0.5
> Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship
> Fix For: 5.1
>
>
> Tapestry has the capability to store much data on the client, whether it is
> persisted page fields, or Form component action data. This presents a couple
> of problems; first, it inflates the size of the rendered HTML stream.
> Second, it is a potential security issue, since a hyper-intelligent black hat
> might find a way to change such data before returning it.
> What if Tapestry stored the associated bytestreams on the server, and
> provided, in the HTML, just a relatively short pointer (a string id that
> points to the correct bytestream) to the stream?
> A small amount of additional data on the server side could be used to
> authenticate the pointer, using the user's session id (if a session exists)
> and host ip.
> Unreferenced data would be periodically purged.
