See CWE-754: Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions Description A Checkbox component, that is disabled from the server can have its server-side value changed from the client in certain situations. An unauthorized value change is only possible when the Checkbox is part of a CheckboxGroup. Independent Checkbox components are not susceptible to this behavior.
