Bug #10279 Updated: recursive loop problem

ID: 10279 Updated by: derick Reported By: nf@labyrinth.net.au Old-Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: Reproduceable crash PHP Version: 4.0.4 Assigned To: Comments: This is not a bug, we have include_once() and require_once() for this. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-11 01:39:58] nf@labyrinth.net.au --- begin test.php --- <? $test = include("test.php"); ?> --- end test.php --- This brought my whole server to it's knees. It basically ate all the resources it could find and filled up all the swap space until the kernel went "erk". I haven't done much research but I'm aware that there are ways of detecting this kind of script. Maybe this isn't really a bug, but it's something worth thinking about (or at least documenting). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
