Paul Lindner closed SHINDIG-606.
--------------------------------
part of 2.5.0-beta1 release.
> Move security token to header for XMLHttpRequests?
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SHINDIG-606
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-606
> Project: Shindig
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Java, PHP
> Reporter: Evan Gilbert
> Fix For: 2.5.0-beta1
>
>
> It seems slightly more secure if the security token were put into an HTTP
> header instead of in the URL when making requests back to the server from
> gadgets. This way the token is not normally logged by proxies, etc.
> We'd still probably support the URL parameter for debugging purposes.
> I'm not a security expert, possibly others with more experience can weigh in
> on how important this is.
