Hacker changing URL string

this is frustrating-- our server is getting pounded (and so
running JRUN up to 100%) with some hacker changing the URL to
different things. I'm running CFMX 6.1 on Windows 2003. Here's a
sample of query strings that have been changed:
Fuseaction=events&section=events&View=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vacacionalhouse .com%2Fen%2Fimg%2Fvohe%2Fseyon%2F
Fuseaction=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.psikolojikyardim.org%2Fetkinlik%2Finclude%2Feto%2Fnixaz%2F
Fuseaction=Day&sm=2&sy=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.so easywebsite.com%2Fsoeasycasino%2Fixu%2Fxotem%2F&sd=27& amp;amp;View=all&View=all&View=all&View=all
-->I've added a catch for these where it redirects
them to the main page, but this doesn't seem to stop them
-->notice the ;amp;amp;amp;amp; in that last one....
None are the same IPs and hail from Russia, Portugal, etc. so
I can't block the offending IP, and they're using a normal browser
so I can't block by user-agent
Any ideas?

with an asshat.
Great idea! (And appropriate name too)

  • URL String works for weeks, then decides to give up on life.

    I have a game that uses the twitter API to call 20 recent tweets from the accoun the URL string is set up to, iot has been working for weeks no problems untill todya, when it just shouted at me! saying:

  • Passing variables through the URL String

    I have a template and outside the basic html - all the content is grabbed from a db. I want to use 1 template to generate all of the other pages for the site. So basically, the only way to identify the page would be through the URL string.
    So, something like -
    www.mysite.com/template.jsp?page_section=aboutus&pageID=1
    That string would query the database and output the content for page 1 of the about section.
    Does this make sense and where would I start to learn how this is done?.
    Again, I appreciate your help.
    Mark

    since database connections are costly affair i better use
    jsp include tag ratter then getting dadta from database
    assumming that u can devide your comman pages in 4 parts
    just assume
    top - logo
    bottom - common links
    center - data
    left - menu
    my jsp page would look like this (aboutus.jsp)
    <%@ include file="top.html" %>
    <%@ include file="left.html" %>
    <%@ include file="aboustus.html" %>
    <%@ include file="bottom.html" %>
    2) disclaimer.jsp
    <%@ include file="top.html" %>
    <%@ include file="left.html" %>
    <%@ include file="disclaimer.html" %>
    <%@ include file="bottom.html" %>
    this would reduce ur maintainnce as if u want to change top logo only top.html needs to be changed and it would affect in all pages

  • What does DUMMY=1 mean in the URL string

    Hello,
    I am executing WAD template that contains a query for my planning layout. When I look at the URL link of the WAD in the browser, it has the following in it:
    http://xxx.xxx.com:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?TEMPLATE=ZFI_ZFIFMAL02_WT0001&DUMMY=1
    What is that DUMMY=1 at the end of the URL string mean ? I have also seen DUMMY=0 in some queries in QA and development systems. Any idea?
    thanks

    Hi,
    thanks a lot for this helpful reply. One question I do have though. So, say I created an iView in portal with the link that points directly to my WAD template and the link has say DUMMY=2 in the query string. Now, if I do update my WAD template, would I need to change the link to DUMMY=3? So far what I have noticed that I do save links with DUMMY=X in the URL and then if I do update my WAD, when the user clicks on the link in portal, the WAD still gets updated. So, do you really need DUMMY=X in your link in that case?
    Thanks

  • How to change url of bsp page

    Hi experts
    I have created a BSP application , In login pafe i want to change  URL which we use for TEST .
    Or can can i redirect to another url , when TEST the page.
    Thanks & Regards
    Prashant Gupta

    Hi Prashant,
    Re-directing to another URL on load of page is a very simple piece of HTML code.Put this on the layout of page from where you want to re-direct to the other URL.
    <html>
    <head>
      <metas http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://sdn.sap.com">
    </head>
    </html>
    Here the important line is the 3rd line which begins with "<metas". The operation is "refresh" which means to "refresh" the current page with the information that follows. The content begins with a zero, which is the number of seconds to wait, and then the URL that you should be taken to.
    So the above code would re-direct you to the http://sdn.sap.com page as soon as you log in.
    Hope this helps!
    PS : meta changed to metas to allow adding of the code.
    Regards,
    Saurabh

  • Japanese Characters working as URL parameters, turning to question marks when in URL string itself

    I'm having some trouble getting coldfusion to see japanese
    characters in the URL string.
    To clarify, if I have something like this:
    http://my.domain.com/index.cfm?categorylevel0=Search&categorylevel1=%E3%82%A2%E3%82%B8%E3% 82%A2%E3%83%BB%E3%83%93%E3%82%B8%E3%83%8D%E3%82%B9%E9%96%8B%E7%99%BA
    All of my code works correctly and the server is able to pass
    the japanese characters to the database and retrieve the correct
    data.
    If I have this instead:
    http://my.domain.com/index.cfm/Search/%E3%82%A2%E3%82%B8%E3%82%A2%E3%83%BB%E3%83%93%E3%82% B8%E3%83%8D%E3%82%B9%E9%96%8B%E7%99%BA
    My script (which works fine with English characters) parses
    CGI variables and converts these to the same URL parameters that I
    had in the first URL using a loop and a CFSET url.etc..
    In the first example, looking at the CF debug info shows me
    what I expect to see:
    URL Parameters:
    CATEGORYLEVEL0=Search
    CATEGORYLEVEL1=アジア・ビジネス開発
    In the second example it shows me this:
    URL Parameters:
    CATEGORYLEVEL0=Search
    CATEGORYLEVEL1=???·??????
    Can anyone suggest means for debugging this? I'm not sure if
    this is a CF problem, an IIS problem, a JRUN problem or something
    else altogether that causes it to lose the characters if they are
    in the URL string but NOT as a parameter.

    My suggestion was that you test with the
    first url, not the second. However, I can see a source of
    confusion. I overlooked your delimiter, "/". It should be "?" and
    "=" in this case. With these modifications, we get
    <cfif Len(cgi.query_string) neq 0>
    <cfset i = 1>
    <cfloop list="#cgi.query_string#" delimiters="&"
    index="currentcatname">
    <cfoutput>categorylevel#i# =
    #ListGetAt(currentcatname,2,"=")#</cfoutput><br>
    <cfset i = i + 1>
    </cfloop>
    If it is a failing of Coldfusion, the above test should fail,
    too.
    Now, an adaptation of the same test to your second url.
    <cfset url2 = "
    http://my.domain.com/index.cfm/Search/%E3%82%A2%E3%82%B8%E3%82%A2%E3%83%BB%E3%83%93%E3%82% B8%E3%83%8D%E3%82%B9%E9%96%8B%E7%99%BA">
    <cfset query_str =
    ListGetAt(replacenocase(url2,".cfm/","?"),2,"?")>
    <cfif Len(query_str) neq 0>
    <cfset i = 1>
    <cfloop list="#query_str#" delimiters="/"
    index="currentcatname">
    <cfoutput>categorylevel#i# =
    #currentcatname#</cfoutput><br>
    <cfset i = i + 1>
    </cfloop>

  • Can I pass variables in the URL string?

    I am trying to get some variables into a loaded swf at
    runtime. The variables will carry information so the swf can load
    the correct xml file. I thought we could pass them through the URL
    string like so:
    new URLRequest("testing.swf?myVar=varOne
    but it just throws an URL cannot be found error. How can I
    get variables into my swf at runtime?

    What you are doing is fine. But you will always get that
    error when testing
    the movie (Ctrl+Enter). Try it in a browser and it should
    work.
    BTW, another way of doing the same is to use a URLVariables
    object, like so:
    var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("testing.swf");
    var vars:URLVariables = new
    URLVariables("myVar=varOne&myVar2=varTwo");
    req.data = vars;

  • Can set charset in jdbc url string?

    can set charset in jdbc url string
    like mysql
    ?

    China,
    As far as I know, you cannot set the charset in the JDBC URL string. However, there are ways to set it. Although I have no experience with setting the charset, I believe the "Oracle JDBC User's Guide and Reference" contains this information. The guide is available from:
    http://tahiti.oracle.com
    Allow me to give you some advice. Each DBMS does things differently. Oracle's JDBC driver does not work exactly the same way as the JDBC driver for "mySQL". You need to learn how Oracle's JDBC driver does things. In my opinion, the "Oracle JDBC User's Guide nad Reference" is very good for learning how to use Oracle's JDBC driver.
    Good Luck,
    Avi.

    Pretend you are explaining this to someone who has no idea what you are talking about (because we don't).
    Statements like "but therewas a problem" are next to meaningless because you didn't explain what the problem is.
    You don't give any useful information such as:
    * Version of JDeveloper/ADF
    * What technologies are you using (I guess ADF Faces, but I don't know)?
    * How did you try exporting to Excel?
    * What was the exact problem you had?
    I've already spent more time thinking about how to ask you questions to get to the real problem than you have formulating your question.

  • GetConnection(String URL) vs. (String URL, String user, String password)

    Hi,
    would have a question referring to the documention at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e13995/oracle/jdbc/OracleDriver.html where the forms of getConnection are described.
    I would like to convert from using a signature that takes the URL, user name, and password as separate parameters to using a signature that takes the URL, user name, and password all as part of a URL parameter.
    While I was able to successfully connect to my database using the form getConnection(String URL, String, user, String password); I am not able to achieve the same when using getConnection(String URL).
    Here are the code snippets, maybe someone can point out the reason why the second approach is not working?

    Let me get this clear.
    You want a login dialog.
    Some program calls the dialog and waits untile user respond
    once the user press ok or cancel it reutrn the users input to the caller.
    You can do this directly using JFrame
    but you can do it wil JDialog if you use it as aModal dialog.
    it will look like this
    class LogInDialog  extends JDialog implements ActionListener{
       String value;
       public LogInDialog(){
          setModel(true);
        // This is what you invoke
        public String loadDialog(){
            setVisible(true);
            return value;
        public void actionListener(..... e){
            if (e.getSource() == bCancel)
               value = null;
            else if (e.getSource() == bOk)
               value = //generate the string
            dispose();
    }
