Re: pass-thru/redirect/DECLINE to *.jpg
my $fh=$pic-open; #returns the filehandle $r-send_fd($fh); close($fh); return OK; I used send_fd because it seemed from the documentation that it is a easier/better(?) method than rewriting the URI and setting default-handler. Is that not so? if you were to use default-handler then Apache would handle stuff like conditional GETs properly, relieving your server from needing to serve the same content over and over again for images, which probably don't change that often. of course, you can use the methods from Apache::File, like meets_conditions() and set_last_modified() to do that yourself and still use send_fd() :) --Geoff

[OT] Ideas for limiting form submissions
I've got a mod_perl feed-back form that sends mail to a specific address.. Spammers have their bots hitting the form now. The tricks I know of are: - generate a random image of numbers and make the user type in the numbers on the form. Painful for the user and spammers probably have OCR! - require an email and send a confirmation email (like a list subscription) and whitelist some email addresses. But we want to allow anonymous submissions. - limit submissions by IP number to one every X minutes. AOL users may get blocked. - md5 the submission and block duplicates (should do this anyway). BTW -- what would you recommend for caching the md5 strings. Cache::Cache or DBM? I suppose a Cache::Cache file cache would be the easiest. Any other ideas on the easy to implement side? -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: [OT] Ideas for limiting form submissions
Some other imperfect solutions: * Take the CRC (or some other hash function) of the message content and reject messages with duplicate CRC (still vulnerable to morphing of the message). * limit submissions by sender to one every X minutes. Avoids the AOL issue, but vulnerable to DDOS and spoofing. * Have the form run some client side code (javascript or VBS) to create the email and send it from the client, so you have more information about the sender (Use something similar to browser or mail client behavior on a mailto:; URI.). Plus, using a client-side script will allow you to turn some of the spammers techniques back on them. If it's a bot, it's likely to either blow up or reject your request. If you send a bunch of extra requests back to suspected bots, you're more likely to crash the bot. For example: * for each request, open a new client window to acknowledge receipt. Clients can deal with it, bots have to be designed to filter it or handle it. * For suspected bot requests, send huge text strings back to the requester to see if the bot has a buffer overflow vulnerability. * CC: the mailto: message back to the sender from the client side to flood their inbox when its a bot. Even if the bot honors the send mail request, you're returning the favor back to the spammers and flooding their system with Emails, too. Even if the bots can continue to hit the submit button, it will reduce the server side processing time for each request, and greatly reduce the number of emails actually sent. Downside is that if they scan the outgoing emails from their machine, they can spam the email address. -Original Message- From: Bill Moseley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2002 1:13 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [OT] Ideas for limiting form submissions I've got a mod_perl feed-back form that sends mail to a specific address..

This problem is this is on Solaris 2.6 w/o root, and I'll bet it would take some time to get The Gimp and GTK and whatever libs installed. So, I'm thinking about creating a directory of say 20 images of words. On the initial request the form creates a random key, and makes that a symlink to one of the images selected at random. That will be the img src link. Then md5 the symlink with a secret word to create a hidden field. The submitter will have to type in the word displayed in the image. On submit md5 all the symlinks with the secret word until a match is found -- match the submitted word text with the real image name, then unlink the symlink and accept the request. Cron can remove old symlinks. If the spammers put in the work to figure out the word by check-summing the images I can use imagemagic to modify the images -- that could be a nice mod_perl handler.

You mean, you have 5.8.0 but no CGI.pm? It
should be there, because it's
the part of the core.
can you please do:
find /usr/lib/perl5 -name CGI.pm
Do you get it?

[mp2.0/Win2K] Compress::Zlib works under /cgi-bin/, not under /perl/
Folks Env: OS: Win2K Server Version: Apache/2.0.43 (Win32) mod_perl/1.99_08-dev Perl/v5.8.0 Server Built: Oct 4 2002 17:26:50 (ie an early version of 5.8.0) This Perl/Apache combo was built by Randy Kobes. Problem: Calls to Compress::Zlib's gzwrite succeed if code runs under /cgi-bin/, but fails if run under /perl/ (say) controlled by ModPerl::Registry. In the log extract below, I've run 2 tests, the first with the /cgi-bin/ version first, and the second with the /perl/ version first. Test data: I'll include the info below (much wrapped), but if you want the test data, and what's below, as a *.tar.gz, just email me. Installation of test module 1. Create /perl-modules/. If you wish to use another name, patch test-zlib.cgi line 190 2. Ungzip/tar Module-MakeDist-1.03.tgz into /perl-modules/. This contains the module causing problems, MakeDist.pm, and servers as test data too. 3. Copy MakeDist.pm into /perl/site/lib/Module. MakeDist.pm uses these modules: use Archive::Tar;use Archive::Zip qw/:ERROR_CODES/;use Carp;use Compress::Zlib;use Config;use File::Copy;use File::Find;use File::Path;use File::Spec; 4. Copy test-zlib.cgi into /apache2/cgi-bin/. 5. Copy test-zlib.cgi into /apache2/perl/, say, a directory controlled by ModPerl::Registry: IfModule mod_perl.c PerlRequire C:/Apache2/conf/startup.pl Alias /perl/ C:/Apache2/perl/ Location /perl SetHandler perl-script PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry Options +ExecCGI PerlOptions +ParseHeaders Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1 /Location /IfModule startup.pl is as shipped by Randy Kobes, ie unmodified. 6.

Click the radio button 'Make distro (Module + Version)' and click 'Submit query'. 7. Repeat 6, using http://127.0.0.1/perl/test-zlib.cgi. 8. Log file, with 2 executes.

I had a similar issue with a fresh install of Mandrake 9.0. (see below for the 'perl -V output') I Embperl (2.0b9dev5 or 2.0b8) wouldn't work without compiling my own non-threaded version of Perl. For my own install of Perl I used all the default Perl compile settings and everything went fine. The biggest problem for me under Mandrake with self compiled version of Perl was the MDK::Common module that drakxconf uses and along with that Gtk-Perl. I have yet to get them all working 100%, but my mod_perl server is running great. The other stuff I can work around. I was mainly trying to get Embperl setup. My Apache::ASP sites seemed to work fine with the default Perl. I realize this isn't exactly like your problem, but possibly there is a commonality of troubles with the threaded 5.8 Perl and mod_perl. Oddly enough on a machine I upgraded from Mandrake 8.2 to 9.0 (Perl 5.6.1 to 5.8.0) everything compiled and worked. I should also not that my Apache/mod_perl compile was done using the Apachetoolbox utility and mod_perl was static not DSO.
