Allaire Security Bulletin (ASB00-05) - A new type of security attack called "cross-site scripting" has surfaced which is based on common website design flaws and data manipulation that web browsers use when communicating with web servers. While the problem is not a vendor-specific issue, it does affect many web servers and virtually all web browsers currently in use. The problem lies with the design and coding techniques of web sites that serve dynamically generated HTML pages rather than the software the websites themselves run on.

Allaire Security Bulletin (ASB00-04) - There is a security issue with the Spectra 1.0 Remote Access Service invoke.cfm template. Normally users must be authenticated in the webtop security context in order to even attempt to use the Remote Access Service. However, if the user passes a parameter called "bAuthenticated" via the URL, a form field, or a WDDX packet, and the user does not specify a username, a bug allows them to use the Remote Access Service even if they are not in the webtop user directory.

Allaire Security Bulletin (ASB00-02) - When installing Allaire Spectra 1.0, a web-based Configuration Wizard is used to finalize a number of configuration settings, including a step which indexes data collections on the server.

Allaire Security Bulletin (ASB00-03) - Patch Available For Potential Information Exposure by the CFCACHE Tag. The CFCACHE tag is a feature available in ColdFusion 4.x to perform template caching to increase page delivery performance by intelligently compiling and storing the output of CFML pages for faster access. When this tag is utilized in a .CFM page it creates several temporary files, including one that contains absolute filenames with directory path information, URL parameters and timestamps. In ColdFusion 4.0x, these files are stored in the same directory as the .CFM page, usually in a publicly accessible web document directory.
