Subject: Re: Protect action pages
I wrap my action pages in a CFSWITCH.
fAll of the values in my cases are names of certain actions, such as
"update" or "delete" or "Send order".
On every form sent is a hidden field named "action". So, if there is no
form.action variable present, then it gives them a custom error or forwards
them soemwhere else. u think this will help?

Subject: Protect action pages
I want to protect action pages from unauthorized forms that are not on the
same server, namely spammers. I wrote this simple script that will work in
conjunction with my other form validation scripts to ensure a referrer
comes
from the same CGI.HTTP_HOST.
<cftry>
<cfscript>
message = "";
errors = 0;
if ( NOT FindNoCase(CGI.HTTP_HOST,CGI.HTTP_REFERER) ) {
message = "You cannot access this page";
errors = 1;
}
</cfscript>
<cfif errors EQ 1 >
<cfthrow message="#message#" type="goBack">
</cfif>
<cfcatch type="Any">
<cfoutput>
<h3>#message#</h3>
</cfoutput>
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
Does anyone see any holes that I should address, or is there a better
solution?
Thank you,
