 I know there is a udf on cflib but like the comment says its really not a 
 good solution.

Get JS to abstract it and write it out..

E.g. Sample JS/HTML output would be:

script language=JavaScript type=text/javascript
!--
r8d='a

Re: deleting directories older than say 6 hours

 Hi

 I want to delete some temporary directories but only older than a
 certain number of hours (say 6)
 The actual deleting is no worries - it just that I can't work out
 to only select/delete directories older than x hours.


Going on memory here, but I think cfdirectory returns a query object
with the directory listing. If so, you could use a Query of Query to
get a result subset that includes directories older than 6 hours (By
using DateAdd()/DateDiff() etc)

Cheers

Re: ColdFusion Birthday

2005-07-13 Thread Jon Austin
Australia had it's celebrations last night.

Kicked off the night with beer, subway and pizza!

We had a breeze presentation about the history of CF with some very
interesting anecdotes. We also saw the famed PowerDeveloper 2000
infomercial seen at the launch of the first Allaire developers
convention. The first Asia Pacific employee (#49) of Allaire spoke of
some of the more memorable moments working with Allaire during the dot
com boom and gave some insight into the Allaire founders. Very
interesting!

We then had a ColdFusion quiz act each CF user group. The winner of
which received a copy for CFMX! We then (via breeze voting feature)
had State vs State quiz, which I'm proud to say, the QLD CFUG won! But
only after lodging a protest and beating Sydney CFUG by one question!
All Australian CFUG's unanimously agreed, that Brisbane is by far, the
CF capital of Australia.

Plenty of prize giveaways after that, copies of CFWACK and Advanced
CFWACK, plenty of CF 10th Birthday shirts (in marquee/developer size),
pens, Frisbees and other assorted marketing paraphernalia!

Then the cake arrived, complete with Happy 10th Birthday ColdFusion
written on it. Our CFUG manager (Darren Tracey) must have looked like
a real tool ordering that from the cake shop!

All in all, great night and good fun. Hopefully we will all still be
using CF in 10 years time!

Fwd: New Macromedia Security Zone Bulletin Posted

2005-05-10 Thread Jon Austin
FYI

-- Forwarded message --
From: Macromedia Security Zone [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: May 11, 2005 5:03 AM
Subject: New Macromedia Security Zone Bulletin Posted
To: bugtraq@securityfocus.com



IMPORTANT:

A new security bulletin describes a configuration problem
that may affect ColdFusion installations.

To learn about this new issue and what actions you can take
to address it, please visit the Macromedia Security Zone:

http://www.macromedia.com/go/mpsb05-03


MPSB05-03

ColdFusion MX 7 cross-site scripting in default error page

Originally posted: May 10, 2005

~~~

SUMMARY

The default error page in the optional-use JRun Web Server
bundled with ColdFusion MX 7 is vulnerable to a cross-site
scripting attack.

~~~

SOLUTION

Define a custom error page or download and install the
patch referenced below or use an alternative Web Server
with ColdFusion.

~~~

Affected Software Versions

ColdFusion MX 7.0

~~~

Severity Rating

Macromedia categorizes this issue as a moderate update and
recommends users patch their installations immediately.

~~~

Details

A specially encoded URL can be used to create a cross-site
scripting attack through the default 404 error page.
Exploitation of the vulnerability requires a user to follow
a hyperlink to a page that doesn't exist on the server.

Most customers using ColdFusion MX 7 will not be affected
by this vulnerability because the majority of customers run
ColdFusion MX 7 with other web servers. This vulnerability
does not affect ColdFusion servers using connectors to any
other web server such as IIS or Apache. Although the JRun
Web Server is included with ColdFusion MX 7, it is not
recommended for use in production environments and is
intended for configuration, evaluation and testing purposes
only.

~~~

Making the Changes

NOTE: Back up your existing files before making changes.
As always, test the changes in a non-production environment
before applying the changes to production servers.

Install the security patch from the ColdFusion MX 7
Administrator. The installation process is the same for
all platforms and installation choices.

1. Download chf70-60112.jar (2K).

2. Open the ColdFusion MX 7 Administrator and select the
System Information page.

3. Next to the Update File field, select the Browse Button
and browse to the downloaded file.

4. Select the file and click Submit.

5. Restart ColdFusion.

The ColdFusion MX 7 hot fix JAR file does not need to be
retained after installing it with the ColdFusion
Administrator. The file has been copied into the correct
location.

The ColdFusion MX 7 hot fix JAR file will appear in the
System Information list.

Re: Running Perl from CF on Windows

2005-03-28 Thread Jon Austin
Download and install Perl for win32 (ActivPerl I think its called)...

Use cfexcute to do perl.exe name_of_script.pl.

That is a bit of a hack, if using Apache or IIS and you can add a
handler for perl scripts the same way it does for CFML templates.

Or, if feasible, re-implement the perl script in CFML :)

Re: Automated testing? Is it possible for web development.

2005-03-09 Thread Jon Austin
While not unit or harness testing, I find Solex to be very useful. You
record a session through the inbuilt proxy and then can replay it to
your hearts content. Build a whole library of playbacks, then whenever
you change some code, you can just switch perspective in Eclipse and
let 'er rip.

Gives you a nice quick hands off break as well, where you would
normally be refreshing, clicking and filling out forms.

 test harnesses for CFCs. One can choose to execute a custom set of
 tests or the entire test suite. Proof that everything passed is
 required before deployment as part of our configuration management
 process. It's not perfect but it goes a very long way toward making
 sure there are no errors in the code.

Re: CF generated email.

2005-03-01 Thread Jon Austin
I think the issue is that they are being done in a asynchronous,
single threaded fashion. By that, I mean your code is looping over
each email to be sent, one by one. This probably means a full cycle of
connecting to the SMTP service, HELO'ing, killing sockets etc.

You need to find a replacement (Javamail?) which will let you do it in
either a multi-threaded fashion, or in a proper spooled fashion.

E.g. At the moment, its executing like:

connect
send 1 email
/connect

connect
send 1 email
/connect

connect
send 1 email
/connect

You need it to be doing:

connect
send 1 email
send 1 email
send 1 email

send 1 email
/connect

How to do it, I'm not 100% sure. :) In fact, I'm not even sure that
the behaviour above is correct. It's mostly assumptions. Anyone from
MM or with bulk mailing experience know?

Jon

Re: CF generated email.

2005-03-01 Thread Jon Austin
Argh, that was something of a brainfart on my behalf. Of course CF
does spool them immediately to disk.

If the SMTP server you are using during development is many miles
away, the network issue could be a factor. You mentioned 1 per second,
this would be reasonable IMO when delivering via a remote SMTP server.

Why can't you deliver the messages from your local, firewalled environment?

Re: Holy Security

2005-02-14 Thread Jon Austin
Am I misreading what you said? Strange piece of logic there. I would
think the fact that the source code not being available would make it
more difficult to find security problems.

It would easier to spot an overflow of some type in the code, rather
than having to effectively brute force an overflow by pushing lots
of data around and then analyzing the crash dump of
application/process to find out what went wrong and how to exploit it.

Is there a flip-side to this where closed source makes it easier to
find vulnerabilities?

Re: Holy Security

2005-02-14 Thread Jon Austin
Well, the Linux kernel for one is pretty heavily peer-reviewed. And
thats even before it gets committed to the source tree, which largely
is a final process overseen by Linus. So the kernel code is VERY
heavily reviewed.

Look at the bugtraq mailing list. There are tonnes of people who are 

a) discovering a flaw in an open source package, either by installing
and mucking around, or testing it specifically for vulnerabilities
(passing some sort of internal QA procedures).

b) reporting the flaws to the package authors, sometimes including a patch! 

c) the author releases a fix before the vulnerability has been
exploited in the wild and the discoverer gets to claim some street
cred for finding it.

In the last 24-48 hours..

http://securitytracker.com/alerts/2005/Feb/1013078.html
ht://dig has a cross site scripting hole from unfiltered input.

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2005-02/msg00049.php
pgSQL has multiple buffer overruns. This was discovered by a fellow
developer, unfortunately after the code had been released.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=280664
Malicios code can meddle with your Firefox settings. See the work-flow
here how a patch was submitted, it was reviewed, super-reviewed then
approved. Then someone checked it into the various branches of the
project, make it a retrospective fix?

It is virtually impossible to write 100% flawless software on a
project of considerable size. I would however, have the code out there
for the world to see and have independent objective reviews of it.

Jon

No, but it was in response to your original question,

I would argue that open source code is MORE analyzed than closed
source. Especially if it is a critical/core component.

Look at OpenBSD. They have a fantastic security record.

 the entire codebase for that type of overflow?

Hey, shit happens and silly bugs get out there in the mainstream. I'm
pretty sure that there are still some infected IIS servers spewing out
CodeRed probes. Remember the carnage that came from CodeRed?

 I seriously doubt that*. Reviewing code is not fun. Reviewing
 code for the forth time because there is this whole new type of
 overflow that you didn't check for the last 3 times is even less
 fun. People are not going to do that when they can also start
 coding on cool new feature X. Unless you pay them to review.

Indeed. I hate reviewing code.

 I'm not buying the many eyes argument. It is just as likely that
 the apparent difference in source code quality between open and
 closed source code is due to closed source code being more
 deadline / shareholder value driven. And that means that open
 source does not have a natural advantage, but a temporary
 advantage until closed source companies get their priorities
 straight.

I can relate to that; we have rushed out a version to meet deadlines
and satisfy customer demand. The resulting code had some pretty bad
fudges with comments like !--- TODO oh well, this is bad but i'll fix
it in 2.5 ---.

I just feel that openness of information in general is good. This way
you REALLY know what it is going on. For example, a mentally ill
person Australian was found, could not tell police who her family was
and she reverted to her to mother tongue (German) and was deluded. So
the police handed her to immigration who promptly put her in detention
until it was discovered who she was, 10 months later.

Now this was a massive bungling by several government departments.
There is an enquiry into the matter, but it will be a private one with
the findings not to be released. The public wants to know how this
happened, and who is accountable for it. But that won't happen because
the information will only be shared among a few people.

Do you see my abstract (but in my mind, valid) analogy?

Re: Audit / History Tracking

2005-02-14 Thread Jon Austin
Well, just a quick solution off the top of my head

You need a transaction log table. Something like:

id - index
action - what action was taken, update/delete/insert
user - what user performed the action
tstamp - when they did it
table - what table was affected
row - what row (id) was changed
value - what the original value was
newvalue - what the changed value is (for action is update)

Then you need some code to pull all this data together. I would
suggesting using a customtag for the actual logging function. Or add a
trigger for UPDATE/INSERT/DELETE on the tables you want to monitor.

Jon

Re: ot: vmware ?

2005-02-14 Thread Jon Austin
You allocate a virtual disk, say 5gb and it creates this file. The
entire virtual system is stored in there. You simply boot it up from
the vmware app, and it sits inside a window. You can extend the window
to full screen.

Remember, that within vmware, the OS is being emulated. You are
running two (or more) concurrent systems. When you dual boot, you are
only running one OS at a time.

It's really good for testing stuff on multiple platforms. e.g. You
would have a Windows 2000, 2003 and Linux image. You can just boot
each one and test your code on it. VMWare is simply amazing.

You can download a free fully functional trial.

And is some cases, issue an IMMEDIATE fix/workaround which you can
patch against (or fetch the fixed version from CVS) and have the hole
plugged in matter of minutes.

Some researchers who have been finding exploitable issues in MS
products have been issuing their own binary patch as a band-aid
solution due to the fact MS can take so long to release a proper fix
(which is understandable with the thousands of hours of regression
testing they need to do, even then, patches still frequently break
stuff). But you would not in your right mind use a 3rd party binary
patch.

I'm sure there is a way to programatically add FTP accounts to your

account in the browser and drag and drop the files to be backed up.
You can then sweep the directory of each user when they login and
present the files for download via HTTP.

Something like this? The only problem is that it is user initiated,
but you could create a script that they schedule to run on thier
machine to initate the backup.

Re: CFPOP - returned timestamps GRR!

2005-01-24 Thread Jon Austin
Adam, 

Point taken. But would why bother including a component which is
flawed in two pretty fundamental ways?

If this was a problem with an open source platform (say, PHP which by
the way has several flawless POP3 implementations), I wouldn't be
upset. I would politely request that it be fixed, and I would be able
to obtain a bleeding edge patch to help test.

But I chose CF for all the good things it offers. RAD being the main
one. But why should I pay the (expensive) license fees for buggy
software? Yes, it is buggy: there is no other way to describe it.

Suddenly that RAD feature goes out the window while I dick around
trying to come up with a disgusting, inelegant kludge.

Do you release buggy, substandard software to your clients?

Yes, software will always have bugs. But when they are present in
development tools, its tenfold more frustrating.

Anyway, the organisation I work for has a pretty good relationship
with MS. I hope the substantial resources of MM can get bugs these
fixed for me and all the other CF users out there.

Regards,

Jono

 Sometimes your chosen platform cannot do what you think it should be
 able to do. You are then forced to write code to get it to do what you
 want. We call this programing.

Re: CFPOP - returned timestamps GRR!

2005-01-24 Thread Jon Austin
Hi Paul, 

Thanks for your input.

 As you've already stated, you can't use CFX_POP3 so unless you can find a
 Java based replacement for CFPOP you aren't going to be able to do much to
 improve the state of your issues.

Unfortunately, this is the case. Feel like writing a Java
implementation? :) I'm sure there are plenty of public-domain POP
classes out there already.
 
 Identifying the content-type of each attachment would mean extra
 functionality in CFPOP that just isn't there. It needs a column in its
 results that matches the attachmentfiles in approach and for every
 attachment, it should provide the content type.

Yes, and this of course would make sense.

 Moving onto your other questions
 
  1. My POP account receives several emails. Fetching them with CF, the
  DATE column of the returned CFPOP query are all the same, for example
  01/01/2000 10:10:10. The action is getHeaderOnly.
 
 POP dates can't be trusted in the headers at all as they are set by the
 Client application at the point of send. I regularly see junk dates. If
 however there is a difference between CFPOP and other mail clients then that
 is a problem.

OK, just to be clear, there is the Date header which is set by the
sending client. Then there are the Recieved headers which there is
one of for each hop that the mail takes. For instance, your message
has 5:

Received: by 10.54.3.22 with SMTP id 22cs4099wrc;

 incorrectly formatted Date fields as to how good the date looks when its

  2. I fetch the emails using a regular POP3 client (Thunderbird 1.0 in
  this case), they display the correct date. This client is set to

  3. I then send some more emails to my POP account and fetch them using
  CF. The DATE column is essentially refreshed to the time that

 Hmmm... But you said the original mails were deleted. Have you tried looking
 at the headers using a telnet session to your server and deciphering the
 date field yourself as a double check.

Yes, the original emails are deleted. But I then send a few more test
ones, and they are all fetched with the date column being set to the
time I last fetched/deleted.

  date/time is not refreshed.
 
  This leads me to the conclusion that the DATE column in the query

 It is parsed, you just can't trust it. - see above.

Dang.

 
  Is it just me, or is this behaviour incredibly stupid? Is my POP3
  daemon (courier pop3d MySQL enabled) broken? Yes, my system time is

 The POP3 daemon will only be responsible for adding a date to the received
 header of your mail. If you check using a telnet session to your POP
 account, you will see that the first received header you see will be the one
 that was added to the mail by your SMTP service.

Is this the date header or the recieved header?

  Is there a way to access the raw message source so I can at least
  parse it out myself?
 
 Not with CFPOP. You could emulate a POP client using some sort of socket
 plugin for CF effectively emulating a telnet connection over port 110.

Not interested; CF is not excatly an ideal protocol handler.

  Is this wrong, or am I just crazy. What the frig is the point of
  having a half-assed poorly implemented POP3 client? God help me when I
  need to start using CFFTP or CFHTTP.
 
 From my experience, CFFTP and CFHTTP although flaky in previous versions are
 pretty robust in CFMX 6.0 and above CFMX6.1 updater for us is rock solid.

Yeah, I'm just on a rant. :)

  And no, don't tell me to use CFX_POP or something else, because a) the
  Macromedia implementation should work and b) I'm hosted on a Unix

 Ok, I won't tell you to use my tags :). Unless you wan't to write something
 yourself. You are hosed on a Unix box :( Seriously though, if you need any
 help with doing something like that, I'll try to help where I can. I've at

 I agree this is another issue with CFPOP, CID fields could also be passed
 back to the query in a similar fashion to attachmentfiles but they aren't
 which is a shame.

We have a bug open with MM on this, but I don't think we will even see
it fixed in Blackstone.

Large-scale webmail applications

2005-01-19 Thread Jon Austin
Hi list,

Has anyone had any experience with building scalable webmail applications?

I've got a pretty good infrastructure in place to support the email
store and attachments. The interface is clean and usable.

All email accounts in the system are either POP'd from the local
server or a remote server. One issue in particular I'm facing is
retrieving the POP mail efficiently for each account. At present, it
puts in a CF scheduled task, but this is a bad kludge and inefficient.

One solution I was looking at is to use fetchmail (a unix
application) to run continuously, checking email accounts and then
handing them off to a script to be inserted into the DB.

Anyone have suggestions, experiences they would like to share?
Off-list if you prefer.

Kind regards,

Jon

Re: CF Text Support App?

Well, a remoted flash application would be best, otherwise it would
seem to the user that the page is refreshing every X seconds. Not
very elegant.

For a true chat experience, flash is definately ideal. I'm not
really sure if there are any free ones out there, I don't work with
flash much. Anyone know of a flash site which gives good examples of
this type of thing Rick could use as a starting point?

Re: OT: Lynx MySQL v Win2003/IIS SQL

2005-01-18 Thread Jon Austin
IMHO, MySQL while stable, is still only just starting to mature in
terms of features. A lot of new stuff has appeared in MySQL 4.x.

It depends on what all of your requirements are: will you be running
replicated, load-balanced servers? Replication in MySQL is much easier
(and much chaper per license ;) for me being a nix person compared to
MS SQL.

Try and think of every thing you will need for your current (and any
future) applications such as stored procedures, views, triggers etc.
This will give you a clearer understanding of which one is right.

In terms of performance, as you said: there are so many factors to
consider. But generally, I  think MySQL on Unix outperforms MS SQL on
a Windows machine. But that is just more of a feel.

Also, make sure you look at Postgre-SQL during your evaluation. It is
much more feature rich that MySQL.

Re: DNS caching in CF

When this happened to me, I flush'd DNS, made sure nameserver server

Re: bug tracker

2004-12-01 Thread Jon Austin
Also consider three open-source (albeit non-CF) packages:

Bugzilla - probably more useful for larger projects than smaller ones.

Request Tracker - the last time I used this was for a help desk
ticketing system, but I'm sure can be adapted for bug tracking. Again,
due to the number of features, probably better for big projects.

ZenTrack - fairly useful. I'm currently using this on a medium sized
project. Well supported, still has a few minor issues but the
functionality is there.

Regards,

Jon

Anyone built a webmail app? Inline image issue

2004-12-01 Thread Jon Austin
Hi there,

I've got an issue displaying inline images from an HTML email message
retrieved by CFPOP.

Basically, when CFPOP retrieves the message it decodes the inline
image as an attachment. The problem is that in the HTML source of the
body, the src attribute of the image tag is for the CID (MIME
identifier) and not the filename. So it is impossible to match them
together and display inline images.

Does anyone know of a solution to this problem? If you need some
illustrative examples let me know and I'll post an email message
post-CFPOP munging. You can also see for yourself if you look at a
dump of a retrieved message from CFPOP.

Frustratingly yours,

Jon

CFMX: DNS cache?

2004-12-01 Thread Jon Austin
Does CFMX have its own DNS resolver cache? 

From the Windows command prompt, the address (mail server in this
case) resolves correctly, but intermittently, CFPOP is using the old
IP of our mail server (this changed about 4 days ago).

Very frustrating; tried flushing the Windows DNS cache and
stopping/starting the CFMX service.

Any other suggestions?

Kind Regards,

Jon

Re: Need to encrypt cfm output

2004-11-25 Thread Jon Austin
This is a fallacy; the client's browser need to see plain text or it
will never be able to render the HTML! (SSL being the exception - the
browser knows how to handle it)

What you are doing is actually 'encoding' the HTML sent to the client;
this is at best obfuscation and will not stop someone who is
determined.

Strict email validation

Does anyone know of a function to validate email addresses that
matches the accepted address formats for CFMAIL?

I.e. will return true for:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Rob Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Rob Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Rob Smith)

The one from cflib.org will only validate the first example.

Re: Strict email validation

2004-11-24 Thread Jon Austin
The four formats listed above are for MX. They are all RFC compliant,
so there should be very very few SMTP servers that reject any one of
the formats.

As for requirements, it's for an email client I've built. It is so the
user can type a portion of the name, or email address (which comes
from a CRM module) and have it pop-up nicely formatted. The same way
Outlook (Lookout!) and GMail does...

Jon

 CFMAIL in which version of CF?  My experience has been that CFMAIL in CF5
 accepts pretty much anything.  It's the SMTP relay that accepts only
 certain formats, and I've seen differences among SMTP servers.  I've also
 seen differences between the accepted formats for the FROM and TO
 addresses.  So a universal UDF to do this would be unlikely - it would
 have to be customized to each environment.
 
 I've never had a need to validate the address in this manner, though.
 There's no good reason to permit people to enter addresses like this.
 It's much easer for both them and yourself if they enter their name and
 email address separately.  You validate the email address, the name (non
 blank?) and then you store them seperately and use CF to format the TO and
 FROM as you're sending messsages.

CFPOP; inline vs attached fle issue

2004-11-14 Thread Jon Austin
Hi there,

I have an issue with CFPOP and attached files.

I create a message using Thunderbird. If I attach the file, it works
fine and the file appears in the attachedfiles of the returned
query.

If I *insert* the same image into the HTML body so it is inline, it
does not appear in the attached files.

E.g. Attached image file:

Subject: test 2
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
boundary=060303040909060506050808

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
--060303040909060506050808
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

test

--060303040909060506050808
Content-Type: image/jpeg;
name=masthead_Gigx_03.jpg
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: inline;
filename=masthead_Gigx_03.jpg

/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAgAAZABkAAD/base64..

60EidKBchQEa86B40oP/Z
--060303040909060506050808--

Example of inline image (same file):

Subject: test 1
Content-Type: multipart/related;
boundary=010507040504060509080009

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
--010507040504060509080009
Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

To render the inline image correctly, I was planning on replacing the
CID:; img src to a real http URL to make it display properly.

Anyone know where I'm going wrong? Or have another solution? I'm sure
this has been done before.

Kind Regards,

Jon Austin
