in reply to Possible Security Incident with a CGI form - Need Help

I have heard of a large number of requests being made to servers.
If you go to the site mentioned in the logs, you'll just get an advert.

Log spam, essentially.

If the information in this post is inaccurate, or just plain wrong, don't just downvote - please post explaining what's wrong.
That way everyone learns.

    tall_man,

    I believe you are right, but I believe they where trying this attack against Cold Fusion since that webserver is running Cold Fusion and not PHP. I believe those sites that where in the logs are some form of anonymoizer (sp?), for them to cover their tracks.

    Thanks again
