Setting Default Recommendation Description Enable Global Script Protection Default ScriptSrc Directory Unchecked Understand limitations, Checked This setting provides very limited protection against certain Cross Site Scripting attack vectors. It is important to understand that enabling this setting does not protect your site from all possible Cross Site Scripting attacks. When this setting is turned on it uses a regular expression defined in the file neo-security.xml to replace input variables containing following tags: object, embed, script, applet, meta with InvalidTag. This setting does not restrict any javascript strings that may be injected and executed, iframe tags, or any XSS obfuscation techniques. See Appendix A.13 for more information on XSS attack vectors. /CFIDE/scripts/ /somewhere-else/ Because the scripts directory also contains CFML source code (such as FCKeditor), you should move this directory to a non-default location. 60

The default missing template handler allows a potential attacker to get a rough idea of the ColdFusion version in use. Specified The default site-wide error handler may expose information about the cause of exceptions. Specify a custom siite-wide error handler that discloses the same generic message to the user for all exceptions. Be sure to log the actual exception. <strong>10</strong>0 <strong>10</strong>0 or lower Set this to the maximum number of form fields you have on any given page.
