Hi. I've (or rather the company I work for) recently transferred to a new new PHP host (www.hotchilli.com). All is fine, but they do not allow file uploads via a form, stating the following security risk: Arbitrary file disclosure through PHP file upload http://www.net-security.org/text/bugs/968074710,61298,.shtml The following, posted by Zeev, would seem to suggest that the above has been solved some time ago: http://www.securityfocus.com/templates/archive.pike?list=1&mid=80197 Hotchilli also state that 'we have been advised in addition to this by the developers of PHP who we work with quite closely to disable the function on 'all' shared servers.' So. Could someone please tell me if this bug has been solved and if so, in what version? Cheers, -Toby Goldstone / toby@headstate.co.uk
