And to follow that up, yes php has its fair share of security issues too but this is mainly directed at the uber popular apps because there are 100s of thousands of sites using them not because it is foss. Yes cf has been hacked but it has not been targeted anywhere near as many times as php because it is not worth it given the number of sites using cf. Moving to Railo would be a less drastic step, but I can certainly understand why it is hard to sell cf solutions.
