You can now secure your application from automated scipting attacks by using fb.captcha.
It
renders a CAPTCHA on your canvas page inside of a form. When that form is submitted to a canvas page, your callback URL will be called with the additional POST parameter fb_sig_captcha_grade=1 to indicate a successfully completed CAPTCHA.
Example:
Just put this code on your canvas page inside of a form:
<form action=index.php method=post>
<fb:captcha showalways=true />
<input type=submit />
</form>

The following description is an easy way to get access to the limited profile of a user from which you should not be allowed to see any part of his (her) profile except a small picture and a name as you can see it on the following sample:

The only think to do is to send a message to the concerned user you want to get access to his limited profile and wait his answer (hoping he or she will answer).

As soon as he answer, Facebook authorize you to see the limited profile of the user for one week (date starting from the answer).
So as a user, don’t forget that when you answer to someone (who sent you a message) who is not in your friends list, you will allow this person to access your limited profile.

Do you remember my past article with the following title:
“Facebook News (hack): XML Sitemaps & FBML? New Facebook Vulnerability?”
“
In a news from developers.facebook.com from March 12, 2008 and according to Alex Moskalyuk:
“Starting today, you can serve XML sitemaps off apps.facebook.com domain, and notify search engines about changes on your pages. Naturally, this works better for pages that display content without requiring logins.”
This is indeed a really nice news for apps developers… But this implies:
“Facebook will serve any file with “.xml.gz” extension without interpreting it through FBML parser.”
Might this “non-interpretation” be dangerous in any kind of way? A new vulnerability in Facebook?
