I see what you're talking about, and now I see the undocumented feature.


I haven't tried this, but have you tried putting a mapping in place in
IIS, so it redirects /servlet to somewhere else, so that CF doesn't even
get passed the /servlet path from IIS?  Perhaps to a page that
redirects, or a page that returns an error?  IIS should be able to
intercept it before CF gets it, I would think.

Thats the same reason we are trying to disable it!  The only workaround
I can this of is to make a empty virtual directory in the webserver if
there is no way to disable it in CF.

Tim, give this link a try http://practicematch.com/servlet  it will do
the same thing as our servers

  We'd like some info on this too, when we do a nessus check we get the
  following vulnrabilities

  Nessus scan revealed the following Vulnerabilities,
  server setup
  TYAN S2466
  1Gb ECC Memory
  Debian Linux (testing)
  apache2-mpm-worker 2.0.48-7
  ColdFusion 6.1

  ServletExec has a servlet called 'UploadServlet' in its server
  side classes. UploadServlet, when invokable, allows an
  attacker to upload any file to any directory on the server. The
  uploaded file may have code that can later be executed on the
  server, leading to remote command execution.

  Solution : Remove it
  Risk factor : Serious
  CVE : CVE-2000-1024
  BID : 1876?

  We are running CFMX on 2003web and if you hit
www.domainname.com/servlet you
  get a generic cf error even though this directory is not there.  Is
there a
  way to disable this undocumented feature in MX so iis will return a
404.
