Secure


I may be in over my head on this one... VERY new to ASP. I have a potential client which is a marine loan broker. He wants an online credit application for the boat dealers he works with (20 different ones). He wants the credit app to be co-branded. Dealer/LoanCompany logos at the top would be sufficent. The dealer would have a link on there own site to the loan company's site but wants it to look like they are "Partners" and not just being shullde from one site to the next.

Is there a way to display different dealer logos based on the referrer URL? I would rather have one creditapp.asp that displays the proper logos depending on the referrer over building 20 creditapp.asp's. He doesn't need the form data written to a database. He just wants the form data emailed to him. (this I can do) How secure is that emailed data?

Secure FTP With ASP?
Right now, I'm trying to use WSH to run PSCP (command-line version of
PuTTY). I've tested the command I'm using by opening a DOS box
manually on the server, and the test file is successfully transferred.
I've run Filemon and Regmon while running my sample ASP page, and see
no permissions problems. I've tried running cmd.exe and passing PSCP
as the parameter.

I've tried running PSCP.exe directly. I've even
tried using ASPexec to run it instead of WSH. None of these have
worked. I always get the same thing -- error code 0 (success) returned
from WSH or ASPexec, but when I look at the second server the file
never got there, and when I look at terminal services on the Web server
PSCP is still running.

Secure Page
I need to secure my web page, when it is reading a file from the
physical folder.
Say for eg.. I have a page Page1.aspx, which displays a list of links
that corresponds to
the available text files in one of the files. All the other pages are
secured except this
page. So when I click the link, it redirects it to for eg..
http://localhost/folder1/one.txt.
But this should not happen. As the user can type this without even
logging into the website.
So I need to know how to stream this file and display it in another
page, rather than just showing it.

How Secure Is Global.asa?
I have written a simple script that is called every 75 seconds or so to test whether the SQL Server database is running. The script is contained in a page that is not linked to in the site.

The thing is I have hard coded the database information on the page, I was thinking of putting the connectionstring into my global.asa file as an application variable.

How secure are the two options?

Will there be any performance issues? Bearing in mind that this page is called every 75 seconds.

Secure ASP Application
I have an ASP application that I would like to give out to customers. how do I control the licencing. They will get the source code.. (I know I can put it into a DLL - its a possibility) but even then they can simple copy it elsewhere.

So what I thought was some code looks at the servers name, IP and current date and generates a code based on that. Then, I create a code at my end that will only work for that server name, IP and up to a date I specify. The code would be encrypted somehow. Does that sound like it would work?

Secure Documents
I have a client who needs to be able to upload confidential documents (.doc and PDF) to a "hidden" area within their website so other members of their organization can later view them at their convenience. This area would be restricted by logins and passwords, but it also needs to be secure enough that no outsiders could gain access to these documents if they tried.

I've read on here about placing files in a directory outside of the root directory and then reading them back with a script but I'm wondering if there are other options that would be even more secure than this. Maybe with using some sort of file encryption or something else used in conjunction with files outside the root. I would be open to any 3rd party commercial software if someone has had good experience with it. Does anyone have suggestions to offer?

CDO Email From SSL Secure Server
I've built a survey and tested everything is working fine - except fo one problem, that i have been told MUST be fixed

I am using CDO.Message to send email message to the respondants of the survey - a lovely thank you message.

It is sending the emails fine to all email address i have tested, except for email address here where I work, and I have been unable to find a reason for this

the web scripts are running on a secure server (SSL certificate)
and all is working great except the email issue.

the actual code that is sending the emails works perfectly on non-secure server, and seems to be fina on the secure server except for the most important(apparently) email addresses.

Does anyone have any ideas why the scripts would not send to one set of email addresses, but seems to work for all other when on SSL, but works for ALL email address when not on SSL.

Secure Session Keys
I would like to implement user authentication and session management for my
applications. I've been using solution 1 (below) for most of my
applications in the past since the target audience is mostly intranet based.

Now that I'm creating a more global application, I want to use a method that
does not require cookies, yet maintain a farily high level of security and
fault tolerance.

Is there a better way to handle this problem? What method does the big
Internet shopping companies use?

Scenario:

A user is authenticated and is given a session key. The session key is
passed to the user in an HTML page and returned to the server using a query
string. The user then copies the URL and gives it to his friend to see.
Since the URL now contains the session key, how does the server distinguish
between the authenticated user and his friend?

Solution 1:

Use an ASP session variable to store the session key between page requests.
This solution requires that the client have session cookies enabled. If the
session is not encrypted (i.e. SSL), the ASP session id is still passed via.
clear text, and is vulnerable.

Solution 2:

Use a session key that identifies the location (IP address) of the user. If
the submitted session key doesn't match the user's location, then the
session key is invalid. The session key can be passed as part of the URL
and does not require cookies. This method is vulnerable to IP spoofing, and
breaks if the user is behind a NAT server, or web caching server that masks
the true IP address.

Solution 3:

Have the session key returned to the server via an HTTP POST request. This
method does not require cookies, but is clear text and vulnerable if the
session is not encrypted. The session key is lost if the user navigates to
a page manually issuing an HTTP GET request.

B?

Most Secure Way To Provide Log-in Area
I've got a CMS, which currently requests that you provide your username and password to gain entry. Upon submitting this form, your username and password are checked and a session is set if they match:

<%if request("strUserName") = "bob" and request("strPassword") = "bobspassword" then

session("Login") = true

response.redirect("mainmenupage.asp")%>

Each page in the CMS then checks for the session to be set to true before rendering the page.

People say that I should check these values in a database rather than on the page itself, but I don't see why? Can anyone recommend a more secure way of doing this, or is this secure anyway?
