Problem:
It looks like the admin API uses the application name to name a variable.Since an application name can contains any manner of spaces, dashes, etc, it is very easy to break a simple admin API login.Simple workaround is to change the application name, but in some cases, that isn't possible.
Method:
<cfapplication name="foo-admin"><cfscript> admin = new cfide.adminapi.administrator(); admin.login(url.username, url.password);</cfscript>
Result:
The string COOKIE.CFAUTHORIZATION_foo-admin is not a valid ColdFusion variable name.Valid variable names must start with a letter and can only contain letter, numbers, and underscores. The error occurred in E:\cf9_updates_rc\cfusion\wwwroot\CFIDE\adminapi\administrator.cfc: line 117-1 : Unable to display error's location in a CFML template.
