Let's assume a table:
db.define_table('SecretData',
                Field('data','string'),
                Field('file_owner', 'reference auth_user', default=auth.
user_id)
The table is already populated.

On the *View* side, the user is able to send an ajax request which contains 
the *id*, and some data in order to *update* a record he owns.

In this scenario, isn't possible for a user to tamper the *id* variable 
(i.e. through javascript) and mess up with data from other users?
How can I protect against this and enforce the update of the right record?

Thank you.
