#32079 [NEW]: PHP "Safe"-Mode not identifiable in X-Powered-By header

From: milky at users dot sf dot net Operating system: all PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: PHP "Safe"-Mode not identifiable in X-Powered-By header Description: ------------ PHP sends an "X-Powered-By" header with each request answer, containing a PHP version string. It's also included with the Apache id in its "Server" header. This version information however misses important informations - for example which sort of PHP is running over there. If PHP is running in crippled mode, it should identify itself as "SM-PHP/5.03" or just "S/M-PHP" or so. This would significantly benefit the Web hosting provider industry, since fewer contracts would be discarded again after customers find out that they've only be given "Safe"-Mode PHP. Incorrectly advertising features ("PHP" instead of "S/M-PHP") counts as mischief in central Europe. *hint,hint* (Given, that there is always either Python or Perl running on "safe"-moded Webservers, it's obvious that this setting was made for dumb providers. No need to discuss that again here; no?) -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32079&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32079&r=mysqlcfg
