Problem Description:
Adobe ColdFusion 11, 2016 and 2018 all have an undocumented function named _insert() that appears to be just like the documented insert() function.
Steps to Reproduce:
{code:java}
<cfscript>
_insert("hello");
</cfscript>
{code}
This causes issues with code that named private functions _insert() to work around the fact that insert() is a reserved name.
Actual Result:
Parameter validation error for the _INSERT function.
The function takes 3 parameters.
Expected Result:
The function should not exist.
Any Workarounds:
Refactor code to not use the name "_insert" for a private function.Attachments:
