PHP 4.0 Bug #10232 Updated: effects of safemode not described

ID: 10232 Updated by: jmoore Reported By: wez@php.net Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Documentation problem Assigned To: Comments: This is undocumented and unsupported feature and gives a false sense of security which it should not really give. It might well have a total rewrite or be removed totally in a future version so its probably best left undocumented as in its current incarnation its very limited in what it does (security should not be at the PHP Level really but at the webserver level done with appropriate permissions).. - James Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-08 06:47:04] wez@php.net I can't find a description of the effects of turning on the safe mode configuration option anywhere in the docs or on the site (even using a search). There is a user contributed note on the security page that refers you to the php 2 manual that is no longer present on the server. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
