Security

If not guarded against, JavaScript applications can be vulnerable to several types of security exploits. Because the GWT (GWT) produces JavaScript code, that code is is also vulnerable to JavaScript attacks. This section helps educate GWT developers about the risks and explains how to write secure GWT applications.
