Hi,

I have a question regarding the ParametersInterceptor, specifically the
ParameterNameAware interface. Since Struts 2 is typically injecting the form
parameters into the action, I have some security concerns. It works really
great but I fear that malicious users could somehow inject other parameters
as well. 
 
Therefore, during my current project (Actually my first Struts 2 project), I
made all actions implement the  ParameterNameAware interface. Then in the
acceptableParameterName method, I specified the permissible parameters for
the action. This really works nicely but here is my question: 

Is it generally a best practice to ALWAYS implement that interface when
processing forms? (Or am I just too paranoid?) What is the general consensus
on this issue? (I could not find too much information on this…)

Lastly, instead of using the interface, would it be a good idea to have a
dedicated annotation for this? 

Thanks!

Regards,

Gunnar Hillert
