Assuming that 5 char password is done in a reasonable way then that data is not part of the publicly visible portion of the request that anyone along the chain of the communication can trivially eavesdrop. In a lot of cases that password even existing (even if there's no significant data there) will transform a request from a cacheable request into an uncacheable request so intermediate servers won't keep a copy of the response in case anyone else wants the document (there are other ways to do this but this will also force it to be the case). |
