Dave,

I have seen this same error in ASP with ::$DATA, the way to fix that one is
to associate the extension .asp::$DATA with the asp.dll, so it would follow
that if you associate the .cfm+.htr extension w/ the cfml parser.  I am not
to sure how what the CF parser .exe and/or .dll is however. (The error is on
<HUGE SECURITY HOLE>ANY<?HUGE SECURITY HOLE> CFM page)

-Kevin

P.S. - I have been getting errors posting to the list lately, if you would
please post this to the list when you receive.

Subject: Allaire security problem - anyone know solution?


Hi all,

One of my hosting clients has just made me aware of this major security
problem and I'm wondering if anyone knows how to eliminate it?

Try calling the application.cfm template on any CF site with +.htr appended
to the end of the url. You'll first see a blank page. Now hit refresh/reload
and you'll see the full code of said application.cfm

e.g. http://www.support.alllaire.com/application.cfm+.htr

Can someone please tell me there is a patch for this. It seems to happen on
all CFserver versions 4.x + running IS4.0 with Service pack 5

Dave
