Our (PHP) framework sometimes renders hidden inputs with value YTowOnt9. I can’t find that string anywhere in the (huge) codebase, and can’t figure out where it came from. I decided to Google for that particular string, and the result surprised me. Over half a million – kind of random – hits. I haven’t found any page describing the value itself. It has 0 hits on Stack Overflow.
Is YTowOnt9 some kind of magic string?
