security hole...
helo,
suppose I want to give someone service of "send this page to a friend" I give him a form that has two fields in it:
friend's email:
your name:
anybody who visit the page and want to send it (send the page URL I mean) just enter his friend's email and his name and click "send" and the URL (HTTP_REFFERER) is being sent to his friend.
what should I do in order to prevent from a different site to use my service? because now everybody can put a similar form with action to my web page and use my website as their own mail server...
I know I can check the HTTP_REFERRER and send the mail only if the URL is my friend's URL
but is there anything else I should do?
thanks in advanced
Yair
