Look at that URL parameter: isGina=false. Some developer really said "let's just hardcode user identity in the query string" and called it a day. Security through obscurity at its finest!

Somewhere a security engineer is having a panic attack while the intern who wrote this is proudly adding "implemented user authentication system" to their resume.
