How it is a vulnerability in PHP? It's a design vulnerability. It is not has to be attack-able security hole without broken code. There are many security issues and countermeasure like this. e.g. register globals in PHP, stack smashing attack in C, etc. Some people are trying to introduce TAG less execution. Wise choice for TAG less execution would be removing famous LFI vulnerability from PHP. Regards, P.S. BTW, LFI is not only good for execution, but also information disclosure. Just is case, people on this thread didn't realize it. -- Yasuo Ohgaki yohgaki@ohgaki.net
