Intel gives the explanation for this bull as Sony sends PSN purchases as smurfing GET requests fully visible in the URL, and then stores all this data in PLAIN TEXT. I facepalmed so hard that I gave myself a brain hemorrhage.
For what it's worth (very little, I imagine), the page you linked to stated "excluding security code".
