Q: the coldfusion cfm source hacks

From the point of view of security, how it is easy for a visitor to a website have access to the source code real coldfusion, remaining at the .cfm pages, that make up a Web site?

Are there best practices to follow to facilitate the backup, possibly to aid includes and place the source code sensitive in those, located outside of the public folder on the Web server?

The main means of access to the source code is managing transfer a file, they should not have.

We had countless customers with some downloaders of files that do not check the file MIME types, for example; perhaps simply that the file has a .jpg extension. Pirate post an ASP toolkit through your site, figures the URL is downloaded on and pow, now they can navigate all your source code and normally your server.

With CF, it is FCKEditor which is the weak point, as it is a piece of shit free flakey. There was a vuln found in it a couple of years that has affected all CF servers if I remember correctly, and Adobe has released a patch pretty sharpish.

Be * very * careful allowing people to upload files to your website. It's how they getcha.

  • Bugs in the ColdFusion.navigate CF example?

    The pages which I reproduce double lines below, who are both on page 622 of ColdFusion developer and Guide in a simpler form on page 127 of the ColdFusion online reference manual online, appear to contain one or more bugs. First, when clicked on the link in the No. 1 window to run the javacript code: ColdFusion.navigate('windowsource.cfm','w2',mycallBack,myerrorhandler), Javascript complains "mycallBack is undefined". To work around this problem, you can put "mycallBack" in quotes. Same story with myerrorhandler, which should also be placed in quotes. But we're getting the message "function expected". But what function? The function mycallBack is duly defined at the top of the page...

    (Note to beginners Javascript: If you try this and you do not see the error messages, look in the lower left corner of the page; it will say "Error on page".) "You need to click the little exclamation point in yellow triangle to open the window for error.)

    As a relative beginner myself after 5 years of programming it would help me greatly to understand AJAX (and steal code that works!) If a person could not understand what is wrong with the example code below.

    And a second important question: when you receive Javascript errors, how can we ever find the line where it occurred? For details of all understand them do not appear in "View source", we has no idea where the problem is even when you said the line number. In this case the line number is 892 - which is VERY strange since it's the same line becomes number one, if you run the version Developers Guide or reference manual. But how could it be, as the Developers Guide version contains a previous section (illustration cfpod) not present in the version of the reference manual?

    On the other hand, it might be this line 892 is somewhere in one of includes? But where are they? There is a long list at the top of the resulting page (which can be seen in "View source"), for example,

    "< script type =" text/javascript"src="/CFIDE/scripts/ajax/messages/cfmessage.js "> < / script >
    "< script type =" text/javascript"src="/CFIDE/scripts/ajax/package/cfajax.js "> < / script >

    ... and 13 additional lines of includes which look like. But my CFIDE directory contains only the file wddx.js and nothing else. The above files are hidden? And even if we could find and insert them into the page "View Source", there MUST be a better way to know what call the Javascript line error messages! DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THIS COULD BE?

    I placed the simpler version (the one in the reference manual) following the double lines below. Note that there is a main page and a second page, names windowsource.cfm. This second page load in the window 2, as it should. We see the line "It's the markup of the"windowsource.cfm"" it contains, and if you write a few words within the < div > tag, they appear just where they should be. If of course the error does not happen until the function mycallback. I don't know why, but if I put a simple alert ('mycallBack now is') just inside that work, it never appears.

    Help, please!

    Thanks a lot, as well Daverms and you, cf_dev2, for helping solve me this problem. In fact, there was a citation error in the version of the code I was working mostly with - version of the developer's Guide (p. 622, based on figures at the top of the page, but p. 635 in doc PDF itself). It was a mistake of quotation mark double and may have indirectly led to the problems I encountered. The code that I copied it to my post was drawn from the reference manual (in fact, it was p. 127 x, where x is a digit - I said p. 127, because I read the number at the top of the PDF page, chops out the last digit - an error from Adobe, PDF manufacturers very! (Tsk, tsk). I guess the only mistake of the quote you are referring to is online:

    JavaScript:ColdFusion.Navigate ('windowsource.cfm', 'w2', 'mycallBack', 'myerrorHandler'),

    which I have single quotes on the javascript function names; I put those there because I get errors when I did, as I explained above. Again the code you sent me and code in the reference manual, has obviously no single quotes here, and it works for me, as he has done for you. I was sure that the version of the reference manual is no longer works, but maybe I was mistaken. I don't know why I had to put single quotes around the function names, but maybe it was an indirect consequence of the quotation mark missing in the error message, which, as you can see below, it was missing the double quotes to start the expression "Error Message:" the end of the line:

    Alert ("[In Error Handler]" + "\n\n" + "error Code:" errorCode + "\n\n" + Error Message: "+ errorMessage);

    Anyway, thanks again for you help, especially for pointing me FoxFire and its debugger, which will make my life easier in the future!

  • Storage of the client in the SQL data source fails all of a sudden

    After performing several Windows 2008 security updates last night, one of the sites started throwing errors related to access to the client storage database, which is the default value as defined by the CF Administrator:
    coldfusion.runtime.ClientScopeDBException: operation failed on the source of data DATA source NAME.
    Reason of failure java.security.AccessControlException: access denied.


    Most of our sites use this data source for storage of client, and none of them have the problem.
    Editing the file Application.cfm to use clientstorage = "cookie" got the site up.
    I then added a NEW data source to the list of storage Client and set the Application.cfm file to use instead.
    This works. As sson as I remove the Application.cfm file clientstorage attribute, the site breaks.
    Short to reboot the server (which happened last night after the updates), I restarted IIS all related services.
    Any ideas?

    Java security error, huh? You know, I had missed that in your first note. (He says he is, "reason for failure java.security.AccessControlException: access denied".)

    I'm starting to wonder now: what is a CF Enterprise Deployment? It is configured (in the CF Admin) to use what is called "Security Sandbox"? If so, the problem might be that this one app is in a sandbox that has not been configured to access the DSN. Sandboxes are configured for all code running in a given directory (and its subdirectories), which would explain this work for everyone, but this one.

    Purging of customer data is quite drastic, if data are important for your application. I recommend you try this if you have a little more time.

    If you're reading this I would like to learn more about Sandbox security, in addition to the docs, you can read more in some articles that I did for the Dev Center a few years previously, to http://www.adobe.com/devnet/security/articles/sandbox_01.html and http://www.adobe.com/devnet/security/articles/sandbox_02.html. While it was written in the period of CF6, it still applies to the 7 and 8.

  • Find the Oracle data source...

    I inherited a ColdFusion 10 app with a backend Oracle 11g; Windows Server.    I am especially a DBA and not an expert in ColdFusion.  In the application code, they have the hardcoded data source.  In other words, when I move to Test I have to change the source data, load the modules and test.   After a successful test, I need to change the data source, once again, to download and the promoted to production.   I seem to remember in the old application, I used to support, the code was generic and the data source depends on what server you were lit; If the development, testing or production, you don't have to worry.  I don't remember how it was done.   What would be the best way to eliminate this hard coding and make it more automated?   I know I'm probably missing something, but you were all very helpful to me in the last few weeks, so I hope that he is not a stupid question.   Thank you.

    I do not have Admin CF

    You can specify that?  Do you mean that you do not have access to the CF Admin?

    Not having access to the CF Admin, I'm not sure you can do something differently as you are now., unless you're writing a logic to examine the server host name or the domain name of the site and set the source of data accordingly.

    If you can access the CF Admin, create two data sources: one for production and one for testing.  Then in application.cfc, you can write logic to examine the server host name or the domain name and indicate 'this.datasource' to whatever datasource is appropriate.

  • What happened to the option View / Source? I used it all the time

    How you look at the source code (HTML) for the page now that you have removed the option View/Source. I am now using Chrome for this reason...

    Use one of them:

    • Firefox > Web Developer > Page Source
    • Tools > Web Developer > Page Source
    • Right-click on a web page to open the shortcut menu and select the Source of the Page
  • the display of the 6.0 source code?

    It used to be under DISPLAY, the display of the 6.0 source code?

    One of them allows to see the source of the page:

    • Tools > Web Developer > Page Source (Cmd + U)
    • Right-click on a web page to open the shortcut menu and select the Source of the Page
  • Edit event managed by this case in LabVIEW 2013 does not show the specifiers of the event, Event Sources and events on screen resolution 800 x 600

    Edit event managed by this case in LabVIEW 2013 shows not specifiers of the event, Event Sources and events on screen resolution 800 x 600.

    As far as I know, the list of supported resolutions is determined solely by the graphics card. It is possible that one used by the PC supports only 800 x 600 as maximum resolution, even if you plug an external monitor.

    Like Dennis suggested, the recommended option would probably be to develop on another PC and only deploy an executable for the industrial PC. That's what we do with our systems (although not because of this problem, but because it makes sense. There absolutely no need to have the IDE installed in most of our systems).

    Other options:

    1. See if you can get an update of the driver from the manufacturer to solve this problem.
    2. Plug a USB Monitor with its own driver.
    3. Try to hide the taskbar and make the smaller title bar in the hope that the bug manifests.
    4. Try remote access in the PC. I think that some remote access programs allow you to specify custom resolutions that are not affected by the original drivers. Remote Desktop seems to be a likely this option even if it has been awhile since I've used it.
    5. Check the BIOS. I saw at least one industrial PC where there was some settings in the BIOS to control the resolution, but I don't remember the details, and it was quite limited. I think that in this case, you can change the resolution, but then the image does not fill the entire screen.

    Hi JRCLNSIN100,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    We would like to get some more information from you to help solve your problem. You better, please answer the following questions.

    ·         What is the disk you use to reinstall?

    ·         Is this a recovery or reinstalling the disc you are using?

    ·         When exactly do you get this error message?

    ·         What is the edition of Windows Vista, you try to install?

    ·         How old is the drive that you are using?

    ·         How are you starting the installation process?

    After researching the error 0x8007000D code is essentially due to file corruption and a problem with the drive itself.

    First check if you have scratches or dust on the disc and clean the surface and try again.

    To check if the disk is wrong, you will need to copy the contents of the DVD to the hard drive and try to install using that.

    To perform a flat installation of Windows Vista, follow these steps.

    Note The hard disk must have at least 3 GB of free space on the disk for the Windows Vista installation files. The hard disk must have at least 15 GB of additional disk space to install Windows Vista. For more information about system requirements for Windows Vista, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/products/windowsvista/editions/SystemRequirements.mspx

    1. Insert the Windows Vista installation disc.
    2. Start Windows Explorer.
    3. In Windows Explorer, click to select the drive for the Windows Vista installation disc.
    4. On the Edit menu, click select all.
    5. On the Edit menu, click copy.
    6. Click to select the hard disk you want to contain the flat installation files.
    7. On the file menu, point to new, click the folder, type Windows Vista Setupand then press ENTER.
    8. Double-click the Windows Vista Setup program, and then click Paste on the Edit menu.
    9. Double-click Setup.exe, and then follow the instructions that appear.

    See the link below for more information on flat installation.

    This problem can also occur if the firmware of the DVD drive is defective or obsolete.

    If the step above does not resolve the question suggests that you install the latest drivers for the DVD player on the computer.

    Hi, guys.

    I think that 2 types of sources of GPS data as internal device of GPS and Bluetooth GPS Receiver.

    If the user has a BB with chip GPS and Bluetooth GPS Receiver, where it is able to resolve?

    And I thought that this version of the OS 4.2 and 4.3 and 4.5 - 4.7 have different parameters to set the GPS data source option.

    Thank you guys.

    Hello

    The GPS data source is available for consultation in Options - Advanced search - GPS. If you do not have an entry Advanced Options (pre - 4.3 software) then you should see a GPS option on the first screen of Options.
