Post Upgrade Steps

Library Updates

If you have custom code referencing these functions within the specific library component, then you'll need to update your library component reference. If you are referencing these functions through the ADF application space, then no updates are needed.

  • isValidAuthToken
• Scripts 1.1 functions moved to Scripts 1.2:
  • loadFileUploader
  • loadJSONJS
  • loadJQueryCapty
  • loadJQueryMultiselect
  • loadJQueryPlupload
  • loadJQuerySWFUpload
  • loadJQueryTemplates
  • loadJQueryUIForm
  • loadMathUUID
  • loadTipsy

• Utils 1.0 functions moved to Utils 1.2:

Forms Library

If your site is running CommonSpot 8.0.1 or higher, then you'll need to make sure any custom code utilizing the Forms library calling the "renderAddEditForm" function has been updated for the 8.0.1 security enhancements. The 8.0.1 security enhancements are documented in the Summer 2012 SP1 Release Notes.

This security updates prevents JavaScript "alert" or "confirm" commands to be passed into the Forms.renderAddEditForm "customizedFinalHtml" argument string.

For example, the following code will not work:

<cfsavecontent variable="returnHMTL">
	<cfoutput>
		<script type="text/javascript">
			alert("Form Submitted Alert Message");
		</script>
		<p>Thank You for submitting the form.</p>
	</cfoutput>
</cfsavecontent>
<cfoutput>
	#application.ADF.forms.renderAddEditForm(formID=myCEFormID,
						 dataPageId=meCEDataPageID,
						 customizedFinalHtml=returnHMTL)#
</cfoutput>

For example, the following code will work:

<cfsavecontent variable="returnHMTL">
	<cfoutput>
		<p>Thank You for submitting the form.</p>
	</cfoutput>
</cfsavecontent>
<cfoutput>
	#application.ADF.forms.renderAddEditForm(formID=myCEFormID,
						 dataPageId=meCEDataPageID,
						 customizedFinalHtml=returnHMTL)#
</cfoutput>

Please check your custom code and custom ADF applications to resolve any errors from this security enhancement.

The ADF v1.6 and the latest ADF application versions have been updated for this security enhancement. You may need to upgrade your ADF applications.
