You can use HttpSession for it. For example,

public class Servlet1 extends HttpServlet {

    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp) {
        req.getSession().setAttribute("attribute", "value");
        // do stuff...
    }

}

public class Servlet2 extends HttpServlet {

    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp) {
        String value = (String) req.getSession().getAttribute("attribute");
        req.getSession().removeAttribute("attribute");
        // do stuff...
    }

}
