I think it really depends on the developer, I would recommend using setFlash 
and redirect or even throwing an appropriate exception for simple enough 
applications.

You could also write to a log file when you suspect malicious activity and take 
note of any parameters or auth session details for review.

I would personally say don't try to auto ban or log them out it probably wont 
stop them.
