Frinstance?

Suppose I have a page that lists all of my users.
http://somehost/myapp/index.cfm?event=showusers

On this page, I execute a select query and display the results.  If
someone else tricks me into loading that page on my own machine using
<img src=http://somehost/myapp/index.cfm?event=showusers>, then what
is the risk?

I definitely understand the problem of not protecting the page
http://somehost/myapp/index.cfm?event=deleteuser or
http://somehost/myapp/index.cfm?event=deleteuser&userid=1.

If I'm missing something, please let me know.
