> What if your IIS is in the 'LockDown' state?

If you run the IIS Lockdown tool, it allows you to disable various pieces of
IIS functionality to avoid any vulnerabilities in those pieces. That's a
good thing, because these IIS pieces are typically chock-full of buffer
overflows and other problems, and most people don't use those things anyway.

However, that doesn't really have anything to do with what you do in your
CFML pages. If you've installed URLScan, you can use that to limit form and
URL input to a significant degree, but you have to allow some leeway within
the input filter settings so that you can use form and URL input in your
CFML apps.
