"if you are not logged in"... by what measure? How does your app determine that?

That thought has crossed my mind, but I'm not really sure what to do about it. 
We can't guarantee all our clients have static IPs so I cant filter by IP. But 
we do have logic in our application.cfm page that immediately kicks you back to 
the login page if you are not logged in.

Have you considered the effects of non-users (even non-humans for that fact) 
hitting your app all hours of the night?

Scripts, tasks & bots (benign or otherwise) could present an issue to an 
application - which assumes that all user agents will present request headers that 
are compatible with cookies, sessions and the like - but has no exception case to 
handle those which don't.

Something crawling, testing or even attacking your http environment could 
present such a situation.

More random thoughts,

Those arrayindexoutofbounds errors were happening almost every second at all 
hours of the night, and our app is only used during regular business hours in 
the US.
