ColdFusion March 2023 emergency update, and what to do about it
If you've not heard, a new update has been released (March 14, 2023) for ColdFusion 2021 and 2018. Despite what you may hear, this is an URGENT (rated "Priority 1" by Adobe) update that everyone should apply ASAP, for reasons I will explain in this post. In fact, Hackernews reported yesterday (Mar 16) that the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) had issued an urgent warning about this, giving federal agencies a deadline to apply the update. TLDR; For some folks, the above may be all you need to hear: you may be dropping your coffee and donuts now to get the update applied. Still others will see this "huge post" and think, "crap, I don't have time for this". For you, skip to the bottom and its "concluding key points". You can then decide what you think you do or don't "need to know" and pick and choose from the sections as you like. Finally, for those who prefer because of the importance of all this to be led more carefully through understanding things (in a way that's worked for the many people I have helped so far this week, and is far more than either Adobe or Hackernews has shared), please do read on.

File Create Time in ColdFusion / CFML
Today I needed to get the time that a file was created from within some CFML code. I had first thought that cfdirectory or directoryList would return this, but it only returns the date the a file was modified, not the date that it was created. My next thought was that getFileInfo must return this, but again it only returns the date that the file was last modified. Even java.io.File only returns the last modified date, not the date the file was created. The Solution The solution is to use Java's NIO (Native IO) file API, and more specifically the java.nio.file.attribute.BasicFileAttributes implementation. Here's a function that will return the date a file was created, modified, and the date the file was last accessed. function getFileAttributes(path) { var filePath = createObject("java", "java.nio.file.Paths").get(arguments.path, []); var basicAttribs = createObject("java", "java.nio.file.attribute.BasicFileAttributes"); var fileAttribs = createObject("java", "java.nio.file.Files").readAttributes(filePath, basicAttribs.getClass(), []); return { "creationTime": fileAttribs.creationTime().toString(), "lastModifiedTime": fileAttribs.lastModifiedTime().toString(), "lastAccessTime": fileAttribs.lastAccessTime().toString() }; } Note that some linux file system implementations don't actually keep track of the last access time (or atime as they call it), so you might get the last modified date there instead.

Managing coldfusion-out.log and log rotation in ColdFusion
ColdFusion provides a built-in logging system to help you track and troubleshoot application issues. The logging system generates various log files, including the coldfusion-out.log file, which logs standard output and errors. However, if left unmanaged, the coldfusion-out.log file can grow very large and consume a lot of disk space. In addition, it can become difficult to find relevant log entries in a large log file. Therefore, it is important to manage the coldfusion-out.log file and implement log rotation to keep […] The post Managing coldfusion-out.log and log rotation in ColdFusion appeared first on ColdFusion.
