Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-26 09:30:29] php at bouchery dot com Description: ------------ Currently, there are too many people writing news and blogs about the "huge" PHP security hole introduce by "include" and "allow_url_fopen". This mistake is so simple to avoid, but beginners are not so informs and I think it could be simplest to disable this option (allow_url_fopen) in the default php.ini. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30557&edit=1
