Based on your edit and your real-life code, I'd probably update the IsValidForRequest method to look something like this:

public sealed override bool IsValidForRequest
    (ControllerContext cc, MethodInfo mi)
{
    _ControllerContext = cc;

    var map = new Dictionary>
        {
            { CheckType.Form, () => CheckForm(cc.HttpContext.Request.Form) },
            { CheckType.Parameter,
                () => CheckParameter(cc.HttpContext.Request.Params) },
            { CheckType.TempData, () => CheckTempData(cc.Controller.TempData) },
            { CheckType.RouteData, () => CheckRouteData(cc.RouteData.Values) }
        };

    foreach (var item in map)
    {
        if ((item.Key & _CheckType) == item.Key)
        {
            if (item.Value())
            {
                return true;
            }
        }
    }
    return false;
}
