CF Express for simple intranet/extranet app?
I manage a very small non-profit organization. I am working on an app for internal use and am using CF. Are there limitations to CF Express that would prevent me from running this as an intranet/extranet application? Does it use IIS as a web server like other versions, or does it use the internal web server? Can I access it from an address other than localhost?

Re: ckeditor in CF 11?
CKeditor is not included in CF11. CF8-11 includes FCKeditor, which is the predecessor to CKeditor. To answer question 3 in the context of FCKeditor, yes your updates to it could potentially be overwritten by the updater. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes On Fri, Jan 16, 2015 at 10:30 AM, Nick Gleason n.glea...@citysoft.com wrote: Hi Folks, I have a question about ckeditor. We use it in our CMS, but have not used the version bundled with CF before. I have a couple of questions that I am hoping folks here can answer: 1. Is ckeditor included in CF 11? 2. If so, have people had good experiences with it (we've used it for a while - but not the CF bundled version - and have generally liked it)? 3. If the CF bundled version is customized / forked, are there then risks of the forks being over-written in the context of an upgrade? 4. Are there licensing issues with the CF bundled version? In other words, if you use the free version from cksource in a commercial product, there is typically a license fee. If you use the CF bundled version in a commercial product, is there still a licensing fee? Or is that waived in the context of using CF server? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Re: cfqueryparam EncodeForHTML
cfqueryparam and EncodeForHTML are used to prevent two different types of attack. cfqueryparam is for SQL injection attacks, as Byron explained. EncodeForHTML is used to prevent cross site scripting attacks (it does not prevent/escape sql injection), which exist when the attacker can execute arbitrary client side code (such as javascript). Suppose we specified companyName=Johnson Johnson'sscript src=//hackers.r.us/badstuff.js If you inserted that value into the db everyone who views that record in the DB may potentially execute the hackers javascript file which can do lots of things, potentially on behalf of the currently authenticated user. You don't necessarily need to run EncodeForHTML before inserting the data into the database, you just need to make sure that you call EncodeForHTML every time you output the variable. The reason for this is that you can end up double encoding when you edit the record, or maybe you want to output the value in another context such as a HTML attribute, then you want to use EncodeForHTMLAttribute on the raw value instead. In some apps though it can be a much easier solution to just encode it before inserting the data if it is output in a million places. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes On Mon, Nov 3, 2014 at 3:41 PM, Stephens, Larry V steph...@iu.edu wrote: Text input field Entry is Johnson Johnson's I store it in a table using cfqueryparam.

Re: Work Around for SSLv3 Vulnerability?
The SSL handshake handled by the JVM (though there might be some config that takes place in the CF engine, not sure), Java 6 supports only TLS 1.0, java 7 adds support for TLS 1.1 and 1.2. The actual crypto parts of it is handled by the JCE (java cryptography engine) which if you are running Enterprise is RSA Bafe CryptoJ. That other thing that comes into play is the SSL cipher suite support, so it is possible that the JVM and the server cant' find a protocol and cipher suite that they both support. There are also some JVM arguments you can use to tell the JVM which protocols to use, here is the reference doc for Java7: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/security/jsse/JSSERefGuide.html#Customization you might try setting -Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1 not sure if that will help, I think the CF engine *may* overrides the property (in some versions of CF). -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes On Thu, Oct 30, 2014 at 9:07 PM, Michael Grant mgr...@modus.bz wrote: I'll try that with them, thank you SO much. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:359548 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

cfajaxproxy problem
It's been a long time since I've done any real front end
development. I'm working on a site now and want to use cfajaxproxy to call
a CFC that sends an email. I'm using this tutorial as a guide
http://tutorial13.learncf.com/
The calling page (the one that contains the cfajaxproxy tag) is in the root
directory of the site. The cfc is located at /extensions/cfc/proxy.cfc
The specific function being called within the cfc is
called sendPicInstructions
My cfajaxproxy is called thusly:
cfajaxproxy cfc=#expandPath(/extensions/cfc/proxy.cfc)#
jsclassname=proxy /
My JavaScript:
script function sendEmail() { var instance = new proxy();
instance.setCallbackHandler(emailSuccess);
instance.sendPicInstructions(#getFamilyInfo.memberFamilyID#); } function
emailSuccess(result) { document.getElementById('output').innerHTML =
result; } /script
All of my other little HTML bits are correct.
However, I am getting this error, even after trying any number of things up
to and including typing the exact physical file path. The file path
mentioned in the error message is where the CFC is located:
The specified CFC
C:/inetpub/wwwroot/nineoaks_members/extensions/cfc/proxy.cfc could not be
found.
The path to the CFC must be specified as a full path, or as a relative path
from the current template, without the use of mappings.
Any idea of what I'm missing here? I can easily do this without using
cfajax, but wanted to try something new and now it's bugging me.
Thanks,
Pete

But, I just wanted to follow up on this comment that you made below:-- it will also block inline scripts and style elements-- Are you saying that even if you have the self or default values in place, it will block a regular old script in your page? For instance, if you just have something like this:scriptCODE HERE/scriptThat will be a problem? Why? Hi Nick, Yes if you have the following: Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; It will block any scriptcode here/script tags in your page, you can only use script src=/some/uri/script This is a recognized problem in CSP1.0 and CSP 1.1 is currently in development right now with two solutions for this use case, you can specify a nonce in the header, so you would do something like this: Content-Security-Policy: script-src 'self' 'nonce-random_string_123'; Then you can do this: script nonce=random_string_123code here/script You can do the same for inline style tags. See http://w3c.github.io/webappsec/specs/content-security-policy/csp-specification.dev.html#nonce-usage-for-script-elements The second option in CSP1.1 is hash whitelisting, where you compute a hash of the script contents and put that in the header.

I guess where I'm being a bit of a dunce is that in your example, if a malicious url.query variable was passed in by a hacker, wouldn't the display only be available on that single request? And if I come to the same search form 2 minutes later and do a normal search, won't it be clean? I guess that, assuming we have no sql injection to the db, I don't see how that attack stays persistent (as it would possibly for a comment or forum post). Sorry to be over-simple on this. Hi Nick, It is not a persistent attack unless it gets saved to a DB somewhere, etc. But it is still considered harmful, for example if I send you a link that uses javascript to write a login form on the page that submits to my server... then that is not a good thing. Normal visitors can't parse a query string to recognize that it is rewriting the DOM, especially when they see HTTPS they expect that everything on the page is as you intended it. Or the attacker might simply grab cookies and use them to hijack the victim's session. These examples are a bit more targeted, they will probably effect every user of the site but the attacker can use the hole to eventually get the info they are after. Re: the content security policy, that looks very interesting. Watching a presentation on it now. One quick question. If we are using that on a site and then an admin comes in and uses an iframe widget from youtube to display a video on a page in the site, does that get filtered by CSP (and require an exception for youtube)? I gather that would need to be excepted in the frame-src header, right? Yes you would have to allow the youtube.com domain in your CSP header, eg: Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; frame-src 'self' youtube.com; One thing to keep in mind with Content-Security-Policy is that when you enable it, it will also block inline scripts and style elements, you can override that using unsalfe-inline but then you also loose a lot of the benefits of CSP. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:357846 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Hi guys,
Following up on this thread I have a related question - what are some
examples of XSS scenarios other than comments and forum posts.
Any other prominent risk scenarios for XSS?
There are a lot of scenarios, essentially anywhere you output a variable
that originated in some part from an external source.
So for example, let's say you have a search form for your site with some
code like this:
cfoutputYour search for #url.query# returned #search.recordcount#
results/cfoutput
There is an XSS risk there because someone could create a link to
/search.cfm?query=scriptalert('xss')/script (now if you try that
example in a modern browser you will find that it might not actually work
due to the builtin XSS protection in browsers, but the hole is there and
there are ways to bypass the browsers xss protection).
So basically any time you take a variable that comes from the user or some
other untrusted source and output it, you have the potential for an XSS
hole.
Also you should checkout Content-Security-Policy headers this can help
reduce XSS risks significantly on browsers that support it. See:
http://content-security-policy.com/ for more info or come to my
cf.Objective(2014) presentation :)

Re: Setting Cookie Secure, Domain, Path
Hi Richard, Normally you can switch between J2EE and CFID/CFTOKEN cookies without problem unless something in your application code is relying on one or the other. It may be easy to change that or it may be quite involved, it depends quite a bit on how your application is coded. If you want to use J2EE sessions then you have to edit the jrun-web.xml file http://livedocs.adobe.com/jrun/4/Programmers_Guide/techniques_servlet13.htm#1154030but this is server wide so it will be the same for all sites / applications on the server.

But what Robert was asking about was the secure flag on the cookie, which indicates that the user agent should only send the cookie over a secure connection (eg HTTPS), again you have to do this by writing the cookies manually in CF9 and lower, here's an example showing how to do this: http://www.petefreitag.com/item/764.cfm For CF10 it is easy you just specify in your Application.cfc this.sessioncookie.secure = true Also with CF10 (or Tomcat rather) it will automatically add the secure flag to your JSESSIONID cookie on HTTPS requests, this causes your HTTP and HTTPS requests to be on different sessions, which for security is a good thing, but can lead to issues if you have coded your apps to expect otherwise.

This file is most commonly found via the adminapi Hack widely exploited in Dec/Jan 2012 (eg /CFIDE/h.cfm, etc), but I've also seen this particular file on hacked servers sprinkled through the file system (eg 20-30 instances, using random file names). Also I've found in many cases that a server had patched the adminapi issue and blocked /CFIDE/adminapi but never cleaned up files that attackers placed, so they keep getting hit.

Re: Good jvm ram settings for 64 bit ColdFusion
On Tue, Sep 3, 2013 at 9:08 AM, Mark A Kruger mkru...@cfwebtools.comwrote: In 32 bit addressing each memory address takes up 4 bytes (4 x 8 bits) but a 64 bit address space is wider (as in 8 x 8 bits). So for example, if you store an integer - say 14 - on a 32 bit system, it will take 4 bytes to do it ( 1110). That is correct about the addressing being larger on 64 bit, but it still uses 32 bits to store an int (in Java at least, this may differ if you are doing c/c++, etc), but it's address is twice as big. So what accounts for the extra heap usage is that when you have an object reference (or a pointer) to another object or primitive within an object instead of taking 32 bits per reference it takes 64 bits. Also Michael - 2gb perm size seams rather large generally speaking (unless you have tons of cfm/cfc files). Further if your server has 8GB of ram, and you are setting 6GB max heap and 2GB max perm size then you are not leaving any room for the OS to operate when things get full. The perm size does not usually change much once the application is fully loaded and all possible logic routes have executed at least once (unless you have some sort of dynamic cfml generating going on) so you should be able to see how much you are actually using at runtime by running this code: http://www.petefreitag.com/item/821.cfm -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:356698 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Issue instantiating java on CF10
Hi Edward, You are trying to invoke the java class application.TextExtractor which is not part of the standard java class library (those all start with java.something or javax.something typically). The only other possibility is that this class is included as part of CF8, as a sanity check I tested a CF8 server with your code and got: Object Instantiation Exception. Class not found: application.TextExtractor as expected. So you MUST have at some point put a jar file or some .class files into your classpath on the CF8 server. Even if your Java class path entry is empty in the CF administrator you still could have put the class or jar files in some locations such as WEB-INF/lib or WEB-INF/classes which would cause them to be picked up automatically by the classloader. Do a double check on your CF8 server and I think you will find the java code you are missing. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes On Fri, Apr 26, 2013 at 5:25 AM, Edward Chanter firew...@cc.uk.com wrote: Dear Java Gurus, I'm using some java to do text extraction, it was built on CF8 running on linux but we recently moved to a new CF10 server running on windows.

Zero budget, student-friendly CF/HTML/CSS editor?
I teach web design, web programming (JavaScript, some JS libraries, SQL, and CF), and computer science at a public high school that has zero budget for software for my classes. We have a license for Homesite, but it doesn't play well with our environment and is no longer worth the hassle. I've tried Aptana, but feel that it's too complex for teaching beginners web design. What's more, I really don't like the requirement that Eclipse-based editors have for working in a project paradigm on web files. I use Netbeans for CompSci, which IS project-oriented, but that makes a lot more sense given the language. So, what are the free (as in, free) options out there that support HTML/CSS/JS/CF that are at least reasonably user-friendly?

Re: postParametersLimit in CHF4
The vulnerability is caused by hash collisions, so if two strings hash to the same value, for example the result of java's hashCode() function on the name of a form field, then the hash table data structure becomes very inefficient. ColdFusion uses some sort of hash table algorithm to store the form fields (as well as url fields, cookies, etc but these are typically limited in size which makes them less of a target for this attack). CF was not the only technology to get hit by this issue many others including ASP.NET, node.js, j2ee/Tomcat, etc. Typically a hash table algorithm will account for collisions by putting all objects with the same hash code in a bucket, and then does a comparison of each value in the bucket to fetch the correct one, or to see if it is a duplicate when adding a new entry. You can see how the bucket could get very big, and operations on it get slower and slower with each collision added to the bucket if an attacker crafts a request with thousands of input variables whose names all collide to the same hash code. Under normal circumstances having 1000 form fields will not cause any collisions at all, and hash table lookups are quite fast. You may still want to limit the overall size of a request, but the HashDOS can be relatively small (eg 1-2mb) so that is why limiting the number of fields is considered the best protection.

There is a lot you can do to harden your server installation, and your application code beyond what you have mentioned. Security is one of those things that you can never say ok, everything is secure I can check that off my list and move on, it is a constant ongoing thing you need to always be working on.

Here are some tips for file uploads: http://www.petefreitag.com/item/701.cfm you should also make check any file operation that uses variables that can be tainted by the requester, for example cfinclude template=static/#url.path#.html could be used to download any file CF has access to (not just html files). 4) Leverage some of the new session functions in CF10 like SessionRotate (after a successful login), SessionInvalidate (on logout). 5) Employ redundant layers of security (defense in depth), for example using a web application firewall, such as the one my company makes http://fuseguard.com/ there are other ones that are non specific to CF as well. 6) Use security monitoring and scanning tools, such as a PCI scanner, and http://hackmycf.com/ (note HackMyCF is not a PCI scanner, you should still use a PCI scanner in addition to HackMyCF, which is highly CF specific). 7) I could go on and on, so go and register for cf.Objective() where you can hear a several presentations on CF security given by David Epler, Phil Duba, Bilal Soylu, and myself: http://www.cfobjective.com/sessions/ you can find some of my past presentations here: http://www.petefreitag.com/tag/security which also give a lot more detail than we can get into on this thread. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes On Tue, Mar 5, 2013 at 9:03 AM, Stephens, Larry V steph...@iu.edu wrote: Our webserver utilizing CF8 was hacked.

Re: Hack - Further Information
Hi Robert, CFChart relies on the URI /CFIDE/GraphData.cfm so if you block /CFIDE then cfchart also stops working, there is no way I'm aware of to tell CFChart to use a different URI (I wish there was!). This also adds confusing for some because the file /CFIDE/GraphData.cfm does not exist in your /CFIDE folder, but there is a servlet mapping in ColdFusion's web.xml file that allows it to handle this request. So you have to keep that URI open if you want to use cfchart, but you will still want to block the rest of /CFIDE. If you are on IIS7 one way to do this is using Request filtering, you will want to add a Deny URI Sequence for every folder in /CFIDE -- do this at the IIS level applicable to all sites. Unfortunately you can't say Deny /CFIDE and Allow /CFIDE/GraphData it will still block it. This is all covered in the CF9/10 lockdown guides. Another possible solution might be to rewrite the HTML generated by CFChart to use a different URI and then setup a virtual directory mapping on the web server (or alter the servlet mapping in web.xml). -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes On Mon, Feb 4, 2013 at 4:03 PM, Robert Harrison rob...@austin-williams.comwrote: Thanks everyone for the help.

Re: Hack - Further Information
Hi Paul, That approach may work in some cases, but there are cases where /CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm may still resolve even if there is no folder there (or no virtual directory). We often receive reports saying that hackmycf.com is incorrectly reporting CF administrator open because /CFIDE/administrator/ returns a 404, but if you add index.cfm to the end it will infact resolve CF administrator. That's why it is so important to put explicit blocks to /CFIDE uri's in place on your web server. In addition, the administrator is not the only folder to be worried about under /CFIDE several other folders have had exploits including adminapi, componentutils, wizards, scripts, and perhaps others. In short, you should block as much of the /CFIDE is you possibly can. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes On Mon, Feb 4, 2013 at 4:29 PM, Paul Vernon paul.ver...@web-architect.co.uk wrote: What should we do to allow CFChart to function without opening a security hole? What we do is this. 1. Duplicate the CFIDE directory in full. 2. In the duplicate, remove the administration folders altogether. 3. In all but the CFAdmin site itself on the server (which should really not be accessible over the web), map the CFIDE to the version that no longer contains the admin folder. This stops no end of possible security threats before they can start and if this had been implemented on your server would probably have stopped the hack from being successful.

Re: Hack - Further Information
Paul, Sorry to clarify if the folder is gone 100% from the server it will not work, but if you kept it in the default install location, eg c:\inetpub\wwwroot or c:\coldfusion9\wwwroot\CFIDE and even though there is no website that points to that on the webserver it can still resolve. So in that case CF will intercept the request and serve it from the default installed location. There are a few other settings that might need to into play for that to work but it does happen quite frequently from what I have seen. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes On Mon, Feb 4, 2013 at 6:13 PM, Paul Vernon paul.ver...@web-architect.co.uk wrote: Pete, That approach may work in some cases, but there are cases where /CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm may still resolve even if there is no folder there (or no virtual directory).

Re: Secure Image Uploads
From a security perspective you don't want to skip the file extension test(s) - that is critical. Also make sure you upload to a directory outside of the webroot, then perform your validation. Only move it under the webroot if you are sure it is a valid image and has an approved file extension. Finally use your web server and/or CF sandbox security to prevent execution on the image upload folder.

Re: Security Question(s)
On Mon, Nov 19, 2012 at 1:48 PM, Jamie Bowers jamiembow...@netscape.netwrote: Somewhat related, how do I determine that any hot-fix or security patch I may download and install is indeed installed? Jamie, one thing I'd like to point out is that if your are using CF7 then you have unpatched vulnerabilities on the server, CF7 has been End of Life for a while and has not received any security updates in a couple years - so even if your code is secured your server platform is likely not. You will also need to make sure your JVM is patched, which again might be a challenge since CF7 doesn't run on Java 1.6 (without appropriate JVM patches an attacker can simply send a magic number to your server and cause it to hang, among other possibilities). To answer your question here about how do you know what patches are installed: plugI created a service http://hackmycf.com specifically for that reason - you can scan your domain for free but we also offer paid services that can find more details./plug You can also try using the ColdFusion administrator to see what the update level is but that is not a great solution, see http://www.carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2012/6/18/what_hotfixes_have_been_applied for more info. Finally I also wanted to point out that XmlFormat is not a stopgap for XSS either, for example if you have this: cfoutput script var id = #XmlFormat(url.id)#; /script /cfoutput You are not at all protected from XSS - so XSS protection really depends on where the variable is output, it could be in a tag, javascript, css, a url, a tag attribute, all have their own encoding rules that must be applied to properly prevent the attack.

Re: Multiple application in webroot with different sessions
You will need to make sure each of the session cookies specify a path attribute otherwise the user will loose sessions when going from app to app (if you have the session fixation patch enabled). This will also allow you to have unique session ids for each app. You can do this by writing the CFID/CFTOKEN cookies yourself in onSessionStart (example: http://www.petefreitag.com/item/764.cfm) or if you are on CF10 you could try this.sessioncookie.path (but that may not work, looks like they may not allow you to set the path this way). The session timeout is internal to CF so even if the session cookies are not expired it doesn't mean that the session is still valid. So even without all of the path attribute set you can still have unique timeouts, but the session can only be valid for one app at a time. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubESB87vl5U - FuseGuard your CFML in 10 minutes On Tue, Nov 20, 2012 at 12:25 PM, Uday Patel udayjpatel2...@gmail.comwrote: Did you assign different names to the two applications?

Re: Anyone using Twitter Bootstrap with CF?
OK, new (but related) problem. I'm using a modal window to edit records. When I click to edit the first record, it loads the edit window with that records data. Cool.

Sorry for the questions, I've been doing almost entirely server-side stuff for the past few years. You can actually have someone submit the form in the modal just like any other page. Then it will make a round trip tot he server and refresh the underlying page (the one that opened the modal). Alternately, you can have a button in the modal make a javascript call and do a jQuery AJAX call to submit the data, without causing the underlying page to refresh. You can then close the modal using some of the code you should be able to find in the documentation. There are a bunch of ways you can solve the problem, but I'd read up on the whole she-bang a bit before trying to cut/paste anything from Stack Overflow (or this list) to solve your problem. I'd put down the IDE for a bit, get a coffee and take a long read in the jQuery docs around the AJAX methods. http://api.jquery.com/category/ajax/ You should be able to chain those calls along with the Bootstrap modal stuff to get where you want to be. -Cameron -- Cameron Childress -- p: 678.637.5072 im: cameroncf facebook http://www.facebook.com/cameroncf | twitterhttp://twitter.com/cameronc | google+ https://profiles.google.com/u/0/117829379451708140985 ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:353268 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

If you are doing something like this: input type=hidden name=ip value=#cgi.remote_addr# / and cgi.remote_addr is resolving to an internal IP such as 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x due to a proxy or load balancer then you are disclosing the internal IP of a computer on your network. Thus your PCI scan is saying you are leaking that info. In most cases the value you want is the actual remote user's IP address, then the proxy or load balancer will send that along in the X-Forwarded-For header (Which you can access as GetHttpRequestData().headers[X-Forwarded-For]).

Re: Invoking Java component that sends SSL Client Key in CF9 Ent
My Guess is that this has something to do with the RSA BSafe crypto-j security provider that CF Enterprise ships with. This API was upgraded in CF10, so you could try that as an option. When you run Java from the command line, you are not using Crypto-J, when you run java within CF you are. Another thing to try would be CF Standard since CF standard uses the default Java security provider. You might also be able to have CF9 Ent run with the default security provider via some JVM options. Also can you post the full stack trace for the error you are getting in CF? -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?

I've tried using Wireshark as well to look at the packets being sent. From Java the request is fine, from CF the remote URL never gets called at all so it's not even getting to the bit where it makes the request. What I don't understand is why it's throwing the same error when I use a wrapper java class that then invokes the SDK. Even if I hard code the paths to the files in the java wrapper class and all CF does is call the wrapper class I get the same error. I'm thinking it may be some sort of permission issue why it can't read the key file but I can't figure out what to change. CF and Java and Apache all have full permissions on the directories.

Hi Rob, You need to setup your network and/or OS firewall to block port 3306, and then if MySQL is on the same box as CF, just use 127.0.0.1 and port 3306 to connect to the DB. If CF and the DB are on different machines then configure the firewall such that only the CF server's IP can access port 3306 on the DB server. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?

Re: Hashing in CF9
The result of Hash using SHA-512 will always be 128 character hex string no matter what the input it will always be that length. You can simply append or prepend the salt to the value you are hashing, eg: #Hash(password salt, SHA-512)# You don't need to Encrypt your password if you are hashing it, and your salt should be different for every user, something like a UUID or GenerateSecretKey(AES) is what i use. You can store the salt in another column in your user table.

Re: Failed PCI Compliance test on CF9.01
Hi Robert, You are caught in a bit of a catch 22 here. If you want to set the secure attribute on session cookies delivered over SSL, but also have it use the same cookie values over non-ssl - then that defeats the purpose of adding the secure attribute. If you want to do that you can't use the secure attribute on the cookies. The secure attribute says only send this cookie over SSL, so when you make a request to a non-ssl url the browser will not send the cookie, this causes ColdFusion to issue a new session. The best solution is to run all on SSL as Cameron suggested, here's a good read on the performance of SSL and TLS: http://www.imperialviolet.org/2010/06/25/overclocking-ssl.html the main point being that SSL is not as computationally expensive as you may think. If that's not going to fly then you need to build something to share data between the sessions, while making sure that the non-ssl data is not privileged - it can get complicated to ensure that your not opening yourself up to security issues over non-ssl. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?

Just a guess. On Thu, Feb 23, 2012 at 1:10 PM, Brook Davies cft...@logiforms.com wrote: So we ran a load test last night with 100 concurrent users. Everything went fine *except* this ram disk problem and another problem with a missing template include. Looking at it closer, both errors Could not find the included template used application mappings to do the include. These are defined in the application.cfc: cfcomponent output=false extends=coldfireApplication cfset this.name= 'YourMama' cfset this.mappings[ /publicroot ] = webroot 'web\public\' / cfset this.mappings[ /ram ] = ram:// / /cfcomponent Cf 8.01 had a hotfix that was supposed to fix custom tag path mappings acting up under load: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/529/cpsid_52915.html 73761 Fix for the error Cannot find CFML template for custom tag thrown under load when using THIS.customtagpath in application.cfc and enable per app settings is enabled. But I am running CF 9.01 with all the hotfixes. BTW, I dumped the ram disk after some failed includes and the file *did exist* on the ram disk. -- I just did another load test this morning, however this time the load was all done on a single application testing a form submission process (this is where the include error was generated). No errors this time. The difference between this test and the last test that generated lots of errors is that this test did not run concurrent load on the other side of this application which uses an application.cfc that extends the main application.cfc via applicationProxy.cfc. Its a child application that shares the main applications name and scope but also enables client variables and does some other stuff (pseudo code below) cfcomponent output=false extends=ApplicationProxy cfset this.clientManagement= true cfset this.setClientCookies= true cfset this.setDomainCookies= true cfset this.clientStorage= 'LF-CLIENTVARS' !--- NO MAPPINGS HERE LIKE IN THE MAIN APPLICATION.CFC. COULD THAT BE THE PROBLEM?? --- cffunction name=onRequestStart returnType=boolean output=false cfargument name=thePage type=string required=true cfset super.onRequestStart(arguments.thePage) cfreturn true /cffunction /cfcomponent --- So my guess is that because it doesn't include the application mappings that it is somehow overwriting them when two requests run at the same time. Strange I know, but thats the best I can figure. I am gonna run another load test tomorrow night, and try adding the mappings into the child application and see if that helps.

Re: CF attack on a buddies server
I have seen variants of that script before, it is published in several places. In addition to what has already been mentioned, here are some steps you can take to make sure these types of attacks fail (obviously though the more critical issue is how did the attacker get the file there in the first place, probably though a file upload vulnerability, or a path traversal that exposed a password they could then use to upload) 1) Change the default encryption seed in CF administrator (this is for CF9 only) 2) Check Disable access to internal ColdFusion Java components in the CF Admin to prevent access to the service factory 3) Setup a sandbox (and Yes you can still setup a sandbox on Standard edition, you are just limited to one set of sandbox settings for the entire server, instead of being able to create multiple sandboxes) to block cfexecute, and more if possible. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?

Re: Required folders under CFIDE
Pradeep, I would not suggest copying the /CFIDE/ scripts folder into every site root. This can become a nightmare to manage when you need to update with patches or new versions. Instead you should create a virtual directory. I do recommend you setup a virtual host just for ColdFusion administrator, this makes it easy to restrict, log, etc. Some use the built-in JRun web server for this purpose and that also works well in many scenarios. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?

You can use one configurator for all your sites, or create customized configurators for each site / application. When you add FuseGuard to your Application.cfc/cfm you simply tell it which Configurtor CFC to use for the given application. The Configurator tells FuseGuard which filters (filters inspect the request and give it a threat level, they do not modify the input as that can lead to hard to debug issues), loggers (log to db, email, files, etc), and block listeners (api hook that runs if FuseGuard is configured to block a request, and a request is blocked) to run, along with a few other FuseGuard instance specific settings.

With mod_xsendfile on your server you simply write a X-Sendfile: c:\path\to\file.jpg in your getImage.cfm file (you don't need to serve it with cfcontent, which frees up CF to do other things). This allows you to keep the files outside of the web root (protected) and still allow you to run your security code in CF. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?

I would use a cdn or set up a separate server to serve the static images. Note that google recommends using a different domain name for images (like images.mydomain.com) so you don't send the cookies that are sent with the requests to the main domain, and your browser can retrieve them in parallel with the web content.

I was originally storing some images in a database, but then I convinced myself that it wasn't the most efficient way to deliver the images, so I switched my solution to static files. In general, can someone walk me through the pros and cons of placing images that will be accessed heavily in a database versus keeping them in static files? What I'm most curious about is: 1) When I use a .cfm page in the image tag ( img src='getImage.cfm?id=282828'/ ), is it cached within browsers just like a static file? 2) Is it too much strain on the database to be constantly requesting 5k - 60k blobs? Maybe I should just punt and start using Amazon S3? ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:348260 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: JVM Heap Size

Know what the max Java version 1.6.0_* usable with ACF 8 is? The latest version of the JVM that Adobe has certified and supports for ColdFusion 8 (and CF9 for that matter) is 1.6.0_24 (see: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/894/cpsid_89440.html), but more current versions should still work fine generally speaking. The error you experienced may just have been due to a file path typo, or something like that. In case you are not aware versions less than 1.6.0_24 have a DOS vulnerability that is fairly easy to exploit, so you will want to make sure you have upgraded your JVM to at least 1.6.0_24. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure? ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:347982 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Can JS read CGI Environmental Variables?
You can't access CGI environment variables in javascript, but you can access
some variables in javascript that the browser sends which are part of http
request headers and then placed in the cgi scope, including the referrer.
Try using document.referrer in JavaScript to get what you are looking for.

Ok... I'm tired of searching.
Can JS read CGI variables?
e.g.
var referer = cgi.http_referer.slice('/').pop();
if ( referer === 'index.cfm' )
etc.

Re: Paypal integration
You can specify notify_url as a hidden form element: Here's the docs on the form elements that you can use: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-contentcontent_ID=developer/e_howto_html_Appx_websitestandard_htmlvariables Keep in mind that the hidden fields could be modified by the user, that's why using the paypal button api, or the paypal website are the best solutions, but depending on what you are doing you might be able to do sufficient validation in the IPN. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?

Re: cfquickdocs.com down?
Hi Guys, Several years ago I created http://cfdocs.org which had CF 5,6,7 docs - I just updated the site with CF9 docs, I'm also testing out hosting it on Amazon CloudFront CDN to provide even faster response times for all of you, but I have a few kinks to iron out before I flip the switch on that. The main reason I created the site back in the day was so you could do a url shortcut like http://cfdocs.org/cfqueryparam to get to the cfqueryparam docs. You can do this with any tag or function, and here are a few other handy shortcuts: http://cfdocs.org/tags - all tags http://cfdocs.org/functions - functions by category http://cfdocs.org/application-cfc - Application.cfc reference Let me know if you find any problems with the new site. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?
