hi,

look at following codes

<form action="/movies/Edit/4" method="post">
   <input name="__RequestVerificationToken" type="hidden" value="UxY6bkQyJCXO3Kn5AXg-6TXxOj6yVBi9tghHaQ5Lq_qwKvcojNXEEfcbn-FGh_0vuw4tS_BRk7QQQHlJp8AP4_X4orVNoQnp2cd8kXhykS01" />  <fieldset class="form-horizontal">
      <legend>Movie</legend>

      <input data-val="true" data-val-number="The field ID must be a number." data-val-required="The ID field is required." id="ID" name="ID" type="hidden" value="4" />

      <div class="control-group">
         <label class="control-label" for="Title">Title</label>
         <div class="controls">
            <input class="text-box single-line" id="Title" name="Title" type="text" value="GhostBusters" />
            <span class="field-validation-valid help-inline" data-valmsg-for="Title" data-valmsg-replace="true"></span>
         </div>
      </div>

      <div class="control-group">
         <label class="control-label" for="ReleaseDate">Release Date</label>
         <div class="controls">
            <input class="text-box single-line" data-val="true" data-val-date="The field Release Date must be a date." data-val-required="The Release Date field is required." id="ReleaseDate" name="ReleaseDate" type="date" value="1/1/1984" />
            <span class="field-validation-valid help-inline" data-valmsg-for="ReleaseDate" data-valmsg-replace="true"></span>
         </div>
      </div>

      <div class="control-group">
         <label class="control-label" for="Genre">Genre</label>
         <div class="controls">
            <input class="text-box single-line" id="Genre" name="Genre" type="text" value="Comedy" />
            <span class="field-validation-valid help-inline" data-valmsg-for="Genre" data-valmsg-replace="true"></span>
         </div>
      </div>

      <div class="control-group">
         <label class="control-label" for="Price">Price</label>
         <div class="controls">
            <input class="text-box single-line" data-val="true" data-val-number="The field Price must be a number." data-val-required="The Price field is required." id="Price" name="Price" type="text" value="7.99" />
            <span class="field-validation-valid help-inline" data-valmsg-for="Price" data-valmsg-replace="true"></span>
         </div>
      </div>

      <div class="form-actions no-color">
         <input type="submit" value="Save" class="btn" />
      </div>
   </fieldset>
</form>

here is edit action

[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult Edit([Bind(Include="ID,Title,ReleaseDate,Genre,Price")] Movie movie)
{
    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {
        db.Entry(movie).State = EntityState.Modified;
        db.SaveChanges();
        return RedirectToAction("Index");
    }
    return View(movie);
}

I can change hidden field "id" using inspect tools then it will change another records.

how can we prevent it?

Encrypt the ID before storing in the hidden field.
