Fw: [PHP] SESSION Security

Yeah, I guess I meant that! - The Attacker just needs to upload a nice PHP Script wich is able to spy all serverpathes, maybe via phpinfo() and then open each file stored in the session tmp path via dir_list() funktion, hope this was the right funktion, but there are some, with php it's easy to browse the hole server i think, via the file funktions. Puh, I'm sweating to much... hard to write.
