We had discussion yesterday about https - is it really secure when the URL contains GET method data? Yes, it is secure because in case of https browser makes connection to server with Host and port, so this information is open to all. But the details like URL and GET details are encoded and passed to the server. So https is secure even with the GET method submit.
But can we use GET in secured application? I would say no, definetly not to pass sesitive details as part of URL, someone uses the URL at sharing machine it becomes security issue. We can copy the details from browser history :(
Found this link interesting
