You shouldn't use Coldfusion Components because...

Are there any good answers to this question? My boss refuses
to let me use Coldfusion Components because, according to our
sys-admin:
"using the components allows you to extend internal
ColdFusion functions. This has been identified as a security
issue."
And because of this, he believes that he would have to either
not allow them or:
"Define a security Sandbox for each developer. The Sandbox
defines which components can be used and which cannot."
I have tried to read up on this issue over the past few days
but am just not finding the information that I need to address his
problems.
Any suggestions?

>>My boss refuses to let me use

Your boss has no clue , your sys admin even less.
There is NOTHING you can do in CFC that you can't do in a
cfml page. CFC's
are more a logical division for the developer and offer no
more or less
security risk. By your boss/sys-admins logic, you shouldn't
even be using
CFML pages. If you can do damage to security with a CFC, then
you can also
do it with a standard page.
Ask your boss what particular function or action can be
performed in a CFC
that can't be performed in standard page. There are none. A
cfml page and
CFC are really the same thing (even compile down to the same
thing)
The only thing I can think of is that are being misled by the
word
'component' and are thinking more along the lines of MS
components that were
used with traditional ASP. Some of these components caused
security
concerns. But CFC's are not the same kind of component - this
is just an
unfortunate naming coincidence. They should just of called
them CF Objects
or CF Classes. Then your boss/sys-admin would never have
blinked an eye or
been concerned about using them.
Educate them.

  • Confused as to why you shouldn't use imgs as nav links

    I was going to create a horizontal nav bar using text as
    image because I want the text links to be a particular font. People
    keep saying this is a bad idea because the search engines can't
    recognize images. Why does it matter if Google can read my nav
    links? What do people do if they want their nav bar links to be in
    a funky or different font?

  • I've read that you shouldn't use your Admin Account - Why?

    Why is that?
    Also, when my wife and I first got our Mac Pro we used my name to fill out the start up info. What we didn't know was that my name would now be the computer's and home folder name. I managed to change the name of the hard drive/computer (so now it says 'mike & jen') but the home folder is still my name. Bothers me a little because it's not just mine...it's both of ours. I know that sounds silly.
    If we made a new account would the home folder name change too? Any why bother with another acocunt? Why not just use the admin?

    If your computer is connected to the Internet, it's pretty important not to be logged in with administrative privileges. A lot of security vulnerabilities in software boil down to an attacker being able to run software on your computer without your consent. Here are a couple of excerpts from a description of a security update for Quicktime (I've added the bold):
    Impact: Viewing a maliciously-crafted JPEG image may result in an application crash or *arbitrary code execution*
    Impact: Viewing a maliciously-crafted QuickTime movie may result in an application crash or *arbitrary code execution*
    Impact: Viewing a maliciously-crafted FlashPix image may result in an application crash or *arbitrary code execution*
    Often these sorts of security problems rely on the fact that a lot of users are logged in with administrative privileges. So if you're logged in as administrator and running Quicktime, and you browse to a hacked web site that's hosting a malicious Quicktime movie, and you haven't yet installed the latest security update for Quicktime... next thing you know, your Mac is running "arbitrary code" with administrative privileges.
    Logging into a non-administrative account doesn't prevent you from browsing to a hacked web site (and big-time, mainstream websites do get hacked), but if the malicious Quicktime movie isn't able to run its arbitrary code with administrative privileges, it will have a much harder time installing nasty things on your computer.

  • Using ColdFusion components

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WScbb6b82af5544594822510a94ae8d65-7874a.h tml

    Keep in mind that it's till there... for now. According to their site, CF support in DW is deprecated, and who knows if it will continue to exist?
    And it's still there, I suspect, only because totally ripping it out would have been too much extra work.  And who knows if, say, any new tags added in CF10 will be added to the code coloring and hinting?
    Personally, I consider it sad for Adobe to fail to support their own technologies, and it's somewhat telling that it seems to be the direct opposite of the way they went when they wanted to push Flash, and made sure EVERY product supported it in some form or another. Flash, apparently, was important. CF? Not so much.
    I also find it somewhat odd that they seem bent on making DW some sort of "pure" HTML product (though they kept PHP support). DW, Animate, Edge Code, Reflow, Inspect... how many HMTL-only products do they need?
    I have a CC subsciption primarily for DW and PS. Keep this up, and it's just PS. And since I don't do print work, or need CYMK support, it's entirely possible I can find other tools (PIxelmator) to do the job.

  • Why you shouldn't use YouTube downloads -interesting test:

    http://youtu.be/icruGcSsPp0
    demoes the effect of re-encoding material… again and again:
    this fellow up- and downloaded his own recording a 1000x …
    ok, maybe 'a bit over top' - but for demonstrational purposes…
    … video-codecs (most of them…) are  'lossy' - not on first sight, perhaps not on the second one. But 'internally' errors multiply… Additionally: the loss of audio-quality.
    And: this is not YouTubes fault! If you're using 3rd, 5th, 10th generation of highly compressed ('AVCHD'/BluRay/h264/…) material, don't be surprised about 'quality' of final result.
    No scientific test - but simple and impressive!

    One reason, among many, is that TimerTask uses the System.currentTimeMillis() method to define all of it's execution scheduling.
    The call to System.currentTimeMillis() is providing the host computers representation of 'Wall Time' and does not behave very well when the system clock is adjusted such as when NTP or similar makes adjustments to the clock.
    This is especially a problem with large periods between scheduled executions and the system clock is adjusted in large steps.
    Or even with short periods, as long as the clock adjustments are large compared to the execution period.
    This issue is just one of the many that cause issues with this facility.
    There are better solutions, coded to deal with the multitudinous issues of scheduled tasks in the real world; you are better off using the 'concurrency' package rather than the Timer and TimerTask from the util package.

  • Why you shouldn't use TimerTask.

    At the Devoxx 2011 conference there was a talk by Ben Evans and Martijn Verburg.
    On one of the slides (that where skipped) there was a bullet:
    "Stop using timerTask"
    Does anyone have any idea why they would state this?

  • Using XML Components to generate WML Output

    Hello
    Is there a way to configure the XSL stylesheet in a Portal XML Component so that if the compoment is being called from the Portal Page it shows HTML Output and if it's being called by a WAP Phone it generates WML?

    For the purpose you mentioned, you shouldn't use XML component. Rather you should user mobile XML portlet. Basically, if you want to display content in WAP phones, you can use mobileXML portlet available under portal tools in Portlet repository. The XML content which you provide in mobile xml portlet, needs to follow the iAS wireless edition DTD. Then you can put this portlet on a page. Now if the page is accessed from HTML browser, it will transform this content and if it is accessed from WAP phone, it will convert the XML content to WML.
    Hoep it helps.
    Thanks,

  • I bought iphone4 in china,  and it broken when I was in USA. After I sending to your company. You send me a new phone, but this phone is locked phone. I can't use it. Because my sim card is from china

    I bought iphone4 in china, the ss number is 82044JAVA4S, and it broken when I was in USA. After I sending to your company. You send me a new phone, but this phone is locked phone. I can't use it. Because my sim card is from china, so I think you shoulu give me a unlocked one.

    I understand your frustration.
    Fortunately for you, you can make your new phone to work; but to do so, you have to call your Chineese carrier and give them the IMEI number found on the SIM card of your iPhone.
    They will then activate it and you will be able to use it.
    It's NOT a matter of locked/unloked phone; it's a matter of activating (pairing) a SIM card with a phone !
    Just call you Chineese carrier and have them register your SIM card with your new iPhone and you will be back in Business !

  • I can't use swing components in my applets

    When I write an applet without any swing components, my browser never has any trouble finding the classes it needs, whether they're classes I've written or classes that came with Java. However, when I try to use swing components it cannot find them, because it is looking in the wrong place:
    On my computer I have a directory called C:\Java, into which I installed my Java Development Kit (so Sun's classes are stored in the default location within that directory, wherever that is), and I store my classes in C:\Java\Files\[path depends on package]. My browser gives an error message along the lines of "Cannot find class JFrame at C:\Java\Files\javax\swing\JFrame.class"; it shouldn't be looking for this non-existent directory, it should find the swing components where it finds, for example, the Applet class and the Graphics class.
    Is there any way I can set the classpath on my browser? Are the swing components stored separately from other classes (I'm using the J2SE v1.3)?
    Thanks in advance.

    Without having complete information, it appears that you are running your applets using the browser's VM. Further, I assume you are using either IE or Netscape Navigator pre-v6. In that case, your browser only supports Java 1.1, and Swing was implemented in Java 1.2. You need to use the Java plug-in in order to use the Swing classes (see the Plug-in forum for more information), or else download the Swing classes from Sun and include them in your CLASSPATH.

  • I am facing 'How do you want to use this disc' whenever I read/open any lightscribe discs having data.

    Hi,
    When I insert a lightscribe DVD/CD into a lightscribe optical drive, then when I click to open the DVD, I faced this error 'How  do you want to use this disc', although the DVD was full of data. When opening these 
    lightscribe DVD/CD via NON lightscribe optical drive, I noticed that the DVD/CD  opened well without any problems at all.
    Also, how can the System show to me 'How  do you want to use this disc' , in particular when  a DVD is non rewritable(DVD-R) and also contains data)?
    Bear in mind, not all DVDs/CDs were not detected. However, only full lightscribe discs' (having data)
    However, even blank lightscribe discs were detected without problems. When insert a lightscribe disc having data, then I faced that error. However, when inserting  blank lightscribe discs I found that the disc were opened.  Also,
    non lightscribe discs were opened well.
    When checking the device manager, I didn't see any issue with DVD/CD drive. If there were a problem unrecongnising, then I would have seen 'a remarkable mark' in front of it.
    Note: I have faced this problem after trying formating a rewritable CD inserted onto the drive. Althouthg the format failed, all data on the disc was deleted. Anyway, after that, then inserting full-lightscribe  discs are unregonised
    Do you think the problem wth my optical drive. IF so, I would be saying why it wasn't happened with all other non lightscribe discs. If my lightscrib discs were corrupted, then why would they have opened well on another laptop.
    I have done:
    Press the Windows logo key+R to open the Run dialog box.
    Type devmgmt.msc in the Run dialog box, then press Enter. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow
    In Device Manager, expand DVD/CD-ROM drives, right-click the CD and DVD devices, and then clickUninstall.
    When you are prompted to confirm that you want to remove the device, click OK.
    Restart the computer.
    But the same prolbem is existing.
    yes there is a virtual CloneDrive program installed on my PC, however, there is no any CD mounted into it. Even if a CD was mounted into Virtual Clondrive, there would be no problem at all, because the virtual CloneDrive is used to only
      mount ISO disc images into it, and not physical discs.
    Any I have do what you have said, when inserting a light-scribe disc having data, then I open it, I found this
    NOTE: in the above screen shot there is a lightscribe DVD having data inserted. However, in the screen shot below, there  a ightsrbe DVD not having data inserted. In the first screen shot, the disc is not reconginsed by Windows, however, in
    the second is recognised. 
    Even when I have inserted a lightscribe disc not having data(empty), it opened well regardless of  what virutal CloneDrive is enabled or disabled.
    But when cliced on my problem didn't solve,
    A man should convert his anger and sadness into strength to continue living in this life.

    Hi,
    The product Name of my computer is: HP Pavilion dv6-6093ex Entertainment
    Notebook PC support
    The number of my computer is : LM610EA#A2N.
    Could anyone please at this splendid forum take some of their precious time
    out to really reply my questions and solve my problems?
    FIRST OF ALL:
    My HP Pavilion Laptop is about 3 years old.
    My
    sister's Dell Inspiron laptop is 3 years old.
    My HP lapotp is well-cared, as opposed to my sister's Inspiron Dell laptop,
    which is always thrown in dust without caring at all. Also, its battery is
    always inserted even when it is fully charged while the laptop is plugged in to
    the main power supply.
    However, my laptop is either used on only battery, or on plugin. Also, it is
    kept from the dust.
    But, I really found that the battery of the Dell laptop
    still lasts about three and half hours, and there is no problem cooling fan is
    not oproperly preporly.
    I only remember one thing differently done on my laptop battery which is I
    charged it fully, then I stored it without using it for about four months, then
    when I reused it, I found it got worse over time. I.e. first time of using it
    after storing,I found it empty, then I charged it again fully, however, then it
    lasted about 2 hours, then 1 and half hours, next an hour, now it is only
    lasting about 20 minutes without performance. If there is high performance, then
    the computer shuts down suddenly.
    My problem is follows:::
    First: Whenever I inserted any Containing Data OR Data
    CD/DVD-R LightScribe discs, I found that HP optical driver was
    unable to read them. When clicking on the optical disc drive
    'duble-click', then I find that disc opens as this way(NOT: With a CD/DVD player
    is grayed out)
    Blank Or Used CD, DVD±R,RW lightscirbe is unable to be
    read:(clicking on it let it Open like a USB FlashDrive or With a CD,DVD player:
    NOTE: with CD/DVD Player is grayed out)
    Used CD/DVD±R/RW Non-LightScribe disc opens normal:
    Blank CD,DVD±R,RW Non-LightScribe opens normal(Opens like a USB FlashDrive or
    With a CD,DVD)::

    I tried running the below command line to fix potential disk issue 'Chkdsk
    /r /f'
    I cleaned the drive, discs, and so on.
    I have uninstalled the all third-party data recording software.
    I have uninstalled the Cyber DVD suite, lightscribe system software which
    came pre-installed with my HP pavilion Notebook.
    I have recovered my system from the Factory Recovery discs.
    I have tried opening all those LightScibe discs not opening on my HP optical
    drive, on a Dell optical drive, and all of them were opened well, although Dell
    optical drive did not have a lightscribe feature at all., nor third party disc
    recording software
    However, the problem is still with opening the discs LIGHT-SCRIBE
    Thus, my questions are:
    How to determine if the drive is corrupted and needs to be replaced with
    another one.
    I think there something needed to be done on the BIOS Of my HP
    laptop[[[A similar problems happened on my Desktop computer's optical
    drive which is as follows:::(ALL discs are opened as empty by Optical Drive of
    My Desktop Computer) ---while my optical drive of my desktop was connected to
    the primary slave IDE, and the HDD was connected to the
    primary master IDE, the optical drive and hard disk are functioning
    well. However, I remember that while burning an image with Nero essential V: 5,
    something went wrong, and then the Optical Drive of My Desktop Computer
    (HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GH22NP20) became NOT recognised/Installed on
    BIOS, although it was still shown on the device manager as a
    recognised device. Also, it was listed on my computer, however, when entering a
    disc(blank or with data) into the drive, I found it was not recognised, and it
    opened empty(no files at it), although it contains data. Thus, I decided to boot
    to BIOS, and clicked on 'Autodetection for IDE', then I found that only HDD was
    still shown as installed on BIOS. However, the optical drive was not. Th I tried
    clicking on it on BIOS and then clicking on 'enter' to try to let the device be
    re-recognized. However, that made no difference. I had to take part my computer
    ,and then reconnected the optical drive onto the secondary slave
    IDE , and let HDD connected to the same primary master IDE.
    Then, I found that the problem solved and all discs became being read
    normally. Aslo, optical drive became installed on BIOS]]]
    What is meant with with double Layer Support.
    How much does it cost?
