RE: Question about my security system
-Original Message- From: Mike Soultanian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 08, 2005 12:05 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Question about my security system I see the point but I'm not sure if I agree with the implementation. What you talking about here is metadata: information about the file. By putting all of this in the data base you're adding a level of complexity that I just wouldn't be comfortable with. Well, it adds flexibility at the price of complexity. It's not *that* hard to implement it. My first implementation was actually quite easy to code. And yes, while it is a database lookup, it's a very small lookup at that so I don't think it should take that much time. I'll have to research how bad the performance degredation will really be... I'm not worried at all about performance - performance can be addressed. I don't think anything you've talked about will pose a real challenge in that area - it's all doable. The cf_Security tag has to be used (it doesn't have to be used in every file, by the way, just a common include that's run for every request). you already have a requirement to put something in every file (or in common place) but let's say it's included on every page. Well, yes, it does need to be included on any template that needs to be secured (every template in my case). At the time of coding a template, I will identify what actions are to be performed in that template. I will then update the cf_security tag to read like this: cf_security permissions=read,write,delete For some reason I had assumed that all addition of permissions would be done through the GUI... this is clearer. For what it's worth my site works in a very similar fashion and for very similar reasons. The main problem is that Application.cfm can't accept parameters from the page - it's prepended to the page and so nothing on the page can affect it. To get around this in the past (I'm talking CF 4.5) we used baseinclude.cfm files which, as a standard, included at the top of every page but preceded by any number of settings, values or whatever (one of which is the security profile). What happens is when the cf_security tag runs, it will update the database with those permissions (if it hasn't already been done) and then I can go into the GUI and find that file and assign groups to each of those permissions. This makes a lot of sense - the page informs the system. I like that model. Then, when a user requests the template, cf_security runs and spits out a structure or some variables set to TRUE for whatever permissions that the user's group has access to. This is how I am abstracting any group/user references from the template. The cf_security tag does the lookup and spits out variables that the calling template can use for its processing. But would the database actually be storing the page information or just the abstracted permissions? It seems like all of your negatives hinge on storing the page information (page name and location) in the database ALONG with the permissions. But since those permissions are already in the page why does the system need the page? But you're also inheriting a need to make every file uniquely named (or else moving files would be a nightmare) and this doesn't mesh with most web sites (which use the same root for every directory). Ahh, yes, I've thought this out. Obviously it's a problem if every file on my site is called index.cfm ;) So, instead, the cf_security tag will include a unique file security identifier that is automatically placed in every file that the cf_security tag is place: cf_security permissinos=read,write,delete FileSID=jasjdj32j42kj3 This makes more sense... but I'm not sure if the complexity is worth it. It seems like just making sure your permissions are uniquely named would solve the problem. Doing: cf_security permissinos=MessageRead, MessageWrite, MessageDelete would let you ignore the page - you'd be abstracting the permissions. Once ANY page added them you could reuse them for other pages just by adding the name. As of now, I know of no other way to uniquely identify other than giving it a unique identifier. I'd just think long and hard on whether you need to uniquely identify the page. Instead just consider uniquely identifying the entitlement and reusing it over and over. This also goes further to eliminating situations were somebody is prevented from performing an action on one page, but can on another because each page has a separate entitlement for the same action. You know, no, it's not that bad. Where it gets annoying is if you rename a group. Now you've got a big uh oh. Suppose Admin is now called Support Staff and I've added a new group called System Administrators. Now I'd have to edit every file that makes a reference to each of those groups and could possibly compromise my security by a stupid editing mistake. I'm

Unless you plan to do something with the partially completed
application, there is no reason to store it in a normalized way. You
could just WDDX session.app and save the resulting packet into a
database table; then, when the user comes back you just de-serialize the
packet and repopulate session.app. Your table might look something like
this:
appStore{
userid int NOT NULL (FK),
appData text,
dateUpdated datetime
}
Ok I will use a CFLOCK and CFTransaction for the data processing.
At present all the data entered in the form is stored as session
variables, which enables the form to be split up over several screens
which works well.
i.e.
cfinput name=jobdesc size=50 required=Yes message=Please
provide the job description value=#SESSION.app.jobdesc#
The final option below I am trying to implement into the form and am
just looking for ideas on how this can best be achieved using
Coldfusion.
If the users have logged in as a member, they have the ability to save
a partially completed online application and complete it later (by
clicking the 'Finish Later' button at the bottom of the form)
How would this be best achieved ?
Would you save the form field session variables entered on the form
into a database table with a relationship to the members table ?
If so when the user returns to the form to complete it what would be
the best way of ensuring that the data returned from the database table
to populate the form fields works in conjunction with the
value=#SESSION.app.jobdesc# that is set on the form fields by default
that enables the form to be split over several screens ?
Thanks

Subject: Re: Session Variables in CFMX 7
Hi Ian, Here are a few ideas regarding this.
Best deal with session variables within a CFLOCK statement (see docs
for details of possible race conditions) and therefore a useful way to
go about this is to copy any session structures to the request scope on
each request.
I have a similar 'wizard' style process and I create a structure
(inside
cflock) session.wizard
For each wizard step I create session.wizard.stepN (where N is step
number).
I then duplicate this structure to the request scope so that I can
forget about locking from now on.
In each form page I CFPARAM request.wizard.stepN.formfieldN for all my
form fields for this step with any default values.
When the form is submitted I cfloop thru the form structure and copy
the form values to the request.wizard.stepN.formfieldN values. Finally
I duplicate the request scope to the session scope inside a CFLOCK so
the values are remembered to the next request.
In terms of keeping this data in some way, you might consider using
CFWDDX which can convert complex CFML variables (like your wizard
structure) and convert them to a XML string. You could then write this
string to a file or database. CFWDDX can then be used to convert it
back again. There are many ways to store this data but this in my mind
would be the neatest.

Re: XML, XSD, XSL
Ok, I've made the decision to use XML as the format to pass data between objects in my application. This approach seems to have lots of advantages as opposed to using lists of parameters or structures. My question now is how and why use XSD's and XSL. 1.Is there a better list to post this to? 2.XSD's don't seem to provide much benefit in a stand-alone application besides helping create test data via tools like xmlSpy. The Blogs onTap sample application uses a lot of XSL for skinning different blogs so you can change the layout and the look and feel of the blog (beyond what's available with CSS) by editing a reasonably simple XHTML packet with a handfull of custom XML tags for the blog. I don't generally use XML to pass data to and from internal components as it's extra overhead with no significant advantage as far as I'm concerned. There are exceptions -- I have a generic logging tool in the Members onTap plugin which also provides undo/redo functionality for applications, which uses XML to store request data (form/url variables). I use XML in that case to make the tool more extensible, so there's a minimum of code necessary to write the undo/redo components. I also use XML to store the data for the RuleManager components used by both the logging tools in Members onTap and in the blog - in which case the RuleManager component is a facade for managing those rules and all the XML is used internally by the RuleManager.cfc and a collection of RuleCriteria cfc's designed specifically for managing that packet. The packet is only exported from the component for storage -- all other use/implementation of the packet is internal. I don't even see how in ColdFusion you can validate an XML using an associated XSD. With CF7 it validates if you put the path to the XSD in a doctype before you parse it. And it doesn't look like XSL documents are based off of an XSD, so you still have to validate if field lengths, etc using code. Am I missing something here? XSL is validated against the XSD/DTD for XSL. (Offhand I don't know which they use -- I'm hoping they have an XSD, but then I don't know how they would get around the problem of having only any, choose and sequence as their options for the types of children for a node, since you XSL allows child nodes in any order afaik.) The document on either side of an XSL transformation (before or after being transformed) is validated separately against any applicable DTD/XSD for that document (which is where you'd get any string-length validation, etc). 3.Lastly, since the XSL doesn't use data off of the XSD, it appears to be just a different, not necessarily better, mechanism for displaying data. Not just for display, but I believe that's mostly what it's used for. It's also used in some cases for converting one XML dialect to another dialect, for instance, if you had your own internal XML dialect for expressing the data in a calendar because it solves some problems for you, you could then use XSL to transform that calendar format for an export to a standard calendar dialect like iCal for instance (which I'm not certain actually is XML since I haven't looked into it, but that's what I'd heard). I am not sure of the value for me to learn this at this point in time and I see no value in converting screens from CF/HTML to XSL/HTML. Again, am I missing something here? What type of situations cry out for XSL vs. CF/HTML? Skinning. :) and RuleManagers...

XSL is validated against the XSL Schema. There is no schema or DTD for XSLT, there can't be any. A XSLT template can't be validated. XSLT allows a finite set of tags and attributes, but since inside a XSLT template you can mix them with any, arbitrary, well-formed XML code, you can't validate it. You can find a few DTD or XSD for XSLT, but their main practical purpose is to suggest XSLT syntax to XML authoring tools.

CFMX6.1 on WebLogic 7, weird web services call error (java.security.PrivilegedActionException)
We're having a weird issue with CF throwing a java.security.PrivilegedActionException: null error when invoking a webservice (for the first and subsequent times). Thing is, it doesn't matter what order I invoke the 3 or 4 different web service calls in (they are in different pages on the site, with different WSDL URLs). The first few will be fine, and then one will go pop. It will then continue to fail with the same error until the server is rebooted. At that point I can go back to that broken service, and run it again fine. One or two of the others will be fine, but then one will blow up, and the loop repeats. The only think google has for the exception is not having the java.security.AllPermission set in weblogic.policy, so I've added that, to no avail. Has anyone ever seen this before, because it's very very irritating. It's not happening in production yet, but I'm sure it will one day. I believe the file not found error in the CF stack dump is caused by the errors in the WebLogic stack dump, the file is really not there, though others (.java) are - looks like the Axis compile is falling over or something.

Obviously I'm not expecting a hotfix the very next day, but just an acknowledgement that my report has been received and is being investigated would be reassuring. ~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:217615 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
Re: XML, XSD, XSL
but since inside a XSLT template you can mix them with any, arbitrary, well-formed XML code, you can't validate it. That's untrue. Typically the XSL tags in an XSL document are prefixed with the XSL namespace (which is one of the few namespaces which has a default uri) -- that being the case, xsl:template is validated against the schema for the the xsl namespace, whereas other tags in the document may be unvalidated or validated against any other schema or DTD based on their respective namespace URI's. In all likelyhood the schema for XSL uses a lot of any-tag references, although I have seen the XSLT engine provided with CF6/7 spit back the error xsl:template is not allowed at this position in the document or the like, and offhand I'm not certain how they would make that work with XSD if the containing tag has any-tag declared for its children. Of course, the attributes would be validated against the URI for each tag without any problems. Hence you get errors that say namespace 'blah' is uneclared or somesuch if you omit an alternate namespace from an XSL sheet that contains tags using that namespace and then try to perform a transformation. It seems strange to me that a doctype would not allow specification of an XSD instead of a DTD -- I don't understand why that would be the case, it doesn't make any sense to me... Though iirc I think CF7 also automatically validates against namespace URI's if they resolve to valid DTD's/XSD's now that think about it. s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.fusiontap.com http://coldfusion.sys-con.com/author/4806Dealey.htm ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

Thing is, it doesn't matter what order I invoke the 3 or 4 different web service calls in (they are in different pages on the site, with different WSDL URLs). The first few will be fine, and then one will go pop. It will then continue to fail with the same error until the server is rebooted. At that point I can go back to that broken service, and run it again fine. One or two of the others will be fine, but then one will blow up, and the loop repeats. The only think google has for the exception is not having the java.security.AllPermission set in weblogic.policy, so I've added that, to no avail. Has anyone ever seen this before, because it's very very irritating. It's not happening in production yet, but I'm sure it will one day.

RE: New to CFEclipse
Can I ask what it is you are trying to do... is this on cfmx? Does it have to be a cfx? For what its worth you should simply be able to create a new project in eclipse, ensure that any external libraries are referenced by the project (such as the cfx.jar) Eclipse is usually setup to build automatically so it should highlight errors as you go along. Its been a while since I did this and it was pre-mx but I'm pretty sure you can setup a cf page to test it ..create a basic tag which works - load it in the administrator etc, and then add your changes. If I recall correctly you had to have a certain jar in the classpath as well to ensure that changes were reflected as well.

Re: XML, XSD, XSL
2.XSD's don't seem to provide much benefit in a stand-alone application besides helping create test data via tools like xmlSpy. I don't even see how in ColdFusion you can validate an XML using an associated XSD. And it doesn't look like XSL documents are based off of an XSD, so you still have to validate if field lengths, etc using code. Am I missing something here? Nope... XSDs are far from a panacea... they check structure and dialect. Dat's it. CF 7 can validate an XSD and previous versions can do with outside help (COM or Java). This is incorrect. you can validate a number of things with a proper XSD. Beyond the actual document struction validation XSD supports many native data types. You can define your own and use them within your document. You can validate on ranges and numeric values. It supports enumerations, and most importantly you can validate on REGEX patterns. Check out w3schools for a good intro on creating XSD files. (then as has been said use xml validate) But just to warn you, the results aren't always pretty :) Also FYI coldfusion use XERCES from xml.apache.org for the validation.

Re: ColdFusion Security Vulnerabilities
Does anyone have any experience with reporting security vulnerabilities to Macromedia? I reported a vulnerability in ColdFusion using the Macromedia Security Report Form (http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/security/security_zone/alertus.html) three days ago, and haven't heard anything back yet. From what I can tell, the example code I provided a URL for hasn't been downloaded either. Does anyone know if it is usual to receive a response in this situation? Obviously I'm not expecting a hotfix the very next day, but just an acknowledgement that my report has been received and is being investigated would be reassuring. You can email me directly. I'm a member of the security team. We're working on several issues right now - most turn out to be config issues, not product problems but we look at each and every one.

Claude, You might consider: http://ccoj.coldfusionjournal.com/originalseriessummaries.htm Part 6. rish Original Message --- I don't see why you can't build a test harness outside of CF. Simply because a CFX needs to be executed inside the CF environment. It need a bunch of methods, properties and so on provided by the CF application. I cannot and I don't want to emulate the whole CF server in order to test the tag. I just need a compiler to check for syntax errors and eventually produce a class file.

Re: [OT] transparent source control
I don't think you would necessarily want that, even if you could have it. I save a file to disk many more times than I check it out and check it in. With automatic check-in on save, you could end up with hundreds of versions of a file very quickly. IMHO you are better off going straight to version control. Lots of people around here of late seem to like Subversion. I haven't used it myself yet (I am still using MS Visual Source Safe) but it gets a lot of good reviews, and it can now be integrated with CFEclipse, I believe.

Re: multiple cfoutputs vs one as a wrapper
That was the case on CF5 and lower, because they did runtime parsing of the CF, but with CFMX onward, the CF is compiled on the first request, so the parsing/compiling complexity doesn't have any effect on subsequent requests. In other words, having one or many CFOUTPUT tags only affects the initial compilation, which might make the first request slightly slower, but once it's compiled, there is no difference. cheers, barneyb On 9/8/05, Andy McShane [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I was always led to believe that putting cfoutput tags around a whole block of code was slower that only putting the tags around the code that you wanted output.

Re: [OT] transparent source control
You can set up Subversion with Apache and access it over webDAV, which is really slick. Best of all, you can use both Subversion clients (that understand the SVN extensions to webDAV), and normal webDAV clients. For normal clients, Subversion will just do a commit for any files saved to the folders, giving entirely transparent versioning. If you've got a Subversion client, then you can do all the other stuff like pull revision histories. It's really a very elegant setup; the Subversion guys definitely got their stuff together. cheers, barneyb On 9/8/05, Anthony Prato [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I was hoping to hear what the list thinks on an issue I have.

Re: multiple cfoutputs vs one as a wrapper
Andy...this is old news and only applied prior to CF 5 I believe.

Re: Question about my security system
Ok Jim, I think I found the last area where we're getting mixed up. However, I think I understand where you're coming from (and see some of the advantages that you have suggested). My proposed idea below is still storing the file information, but I'm using your filename-permission idea. Check this out: Blank initialized system - Permission database is currently empty (no permissions registered). Some random user logs in and hits two templates (user.cfm and message.cfm) which have the following: USER.CFM cf_security perms=read,edit,delete MESSAGE.CFM cf_security perms=read,edit,delete,post Since neither of these files have been registered with the security system yet, cf_security registers the filenames and permissions in the database (assuming filenames are the unique identifier for simplicity) and tells the user to wait until permissions have been set. The permission table would look like this: PERMID FILENAMEPERMGROUP 1 MESSAGE READ 2 MESSAGE EDIT 3 MESSAGE DELETE 4 MESSAGE POST 5 USERREAD 6 USEREDIT 7 USERDELETE Now, I log into my super-duper permission editor and assign groups to those permissions so the table will now look like this: PERMID FILENAMEPERMGROUP 1 MESSAGE READUSERS 2 MESSAGE EDITMODS 3 MESSAGE DELETE ADMINS 4 MESSAGE POSTUSERS 5 USERREADUSERMODS 6 USEREDITUSERMODS 7 USERDELETE ADMINS Now, here is the user/group membership table: USERS GROUPS joe USERMODS, USERS mikeADMINS, MODS dan USERS Let's say user Joe logs in and he's obviously a member of the USERMODS and USERS groups. Upon login, the system performs a lookup to see what permissions are assigned to those groups (IDs 1, 4, 5 and 6). Those permissions are then loaded into memory like this: session.permissions = messageread, messagepost, userread, useredit Now, let's say Joe hits the USER.CFM template. The cf_security tag is the following: USERS.CFM cf_security perms=read,edit,delete so the cf_security tag can do a compare between the permissions loaded in memory (session.permissions) and what permissions are stored in the file and set any permission to TRUE that match up (remember, cf_security assembles the permission by taking the filename and the permission). The nice thing about this is within the code, you just use standard words like: if edit do this end if Instead of: if messageedit do that end if which makes the code nice and portable if you decide to reuse it somewhere else (not specific to that file). What I really like about this is that there are no database hits while the user is browsing the site. Keeps things nice and fast. The only thing I don't like about this setup is that I'm loading up all those permissions into memory - seems kinda wasteful. Let's say I had 100 files with each of them having a few permissions, that list could be huge, multiply that by lots of users, that could be a lot of memory. I could instead load the PERMID list into memory, but then I'd obviously have to do a lookup to pull the actual permission out of the database every time someone hits a template so cf_security could make the match. The other option is loading up the group memberships into the session variable at login and then doing a group/permission lookup for every template, but that would have a similar performance hit (if not slightly higher) than the PERMID list, but the session variable stays small. Now, I understand that I'm repeating permissions, i.e. there is a permission EDIT in USER.CFM and also another permission EDIT in MESSAGE.CFM, but those permissions are still template specific. I can't give some group generic EDIT permissions because EDIT on one template doesn't mean the same thing on another template. i.e. You have an file in NTFS that has modify permission. You also have an OU in Active Directory that can be assigned the modify permission. However, that doesn't mean that I should have generic modify access to both of those objects just because their permission titles are the same. So whatcha think?

Re: Charting questions
Near as I can tell, the line width is set, which sucks. I haven't played with making custom styles via the stylesheets, however, so that might allow for it, but it a needlessly complex manner. For the dates, you have to have a query with dates in it, rather than a day offset.

Not quite. I know about that one. What I really want is to stretch, vertically, the content inside a cell. Here's an example, this might get my point across: http://tinyurl.com/bumv8 See? They all don't line up, because the short description (finish) in the center of the info is missing on one. I won't have control over this once I turn it over, since the end user is going to be entering products into the database, and some descriptions will be two lines, some none, etc. I can do any of the alignments you listed, but none will stretch them to align at the bottom and the top.

I can't hit that page, is it internal? But if you've got what I seem to get (long date strings and only every seventh point labeled), then yeah, you're stuck with that too.

funky strings in CFCs?
I'm getting results from my DAO that don't exactly match the same value when retrieved using good old-fashioned cfquery. I suspect I'm doing something goofy. When I grab the data directly using cfquery, I can see that the value stored in my database is simply 81150-100. When I retrieve the same value through my DAO, the value is essentially the same but the string is prepended by a line break and extra spaces. So 81150-100 is returned as 81150-100 Am I making, by chance, a common mistake? If the symptoms sound familiar to you I'd sure appreciate the help. Here's what I think is the relevant code.

Re: Simple CFC quesiton
No. Most of the time they'll be functionally identical, but the former is what you want to use in nearly all cases. It's more performant, far less ambigious, and more clearly communicates what you're doing.

How to reload Java classes in CF server
Hi, it looks like the CF server is reading once for all Java classes it need the first time it needs it. I explain: I have a Java CFX tag (Yeah, at last! ;-). It executes nirmally, fine, now I modify it, reload the page, and the modification does not show. CF is still executing the previous version of the tag, EVEN if I delete the class file. If I stop and restart the CF server, and reload the page, then the modification is seen. It's really a PITA for the developer. I hope there is another way to tell CF it should reload a new class file? -- ___ REUSE CODE!
