Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-20 08:30:20] entis@poczta.fm the same bug is in methods : _connect addUser removeUser listUsers ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-20 08:20:59] entis@poczta.fm there is dangerous bug in Auth package ! In file \Auth\Container\DB.php In method Auth_Container_DB::fetchData In lines : ... $res = $this->query($query); if (DB::isError($res)) { return PEAR::raiseError($res->code, PEAR_ERROR_DIE); } else { ... compare raiseError definition : function &raiseError($message = null, $code = null, $mode = null, $options = null, $userinfo = null, $error_class = null, $skipmsg = false) code should be second parameter and mode should be third parameter. I check if something go wrong in fetching data from database, this code don't stop program (PEAR_ERROR_DIE isn't in correct place) and user can gain unauthorized access. Solution is very simple : ... $res = $this->query($query); if (DB::isError($res)) { return PEAR::raiseError('',$res->code, PEAR_ERROR_DIE); } else { ... i have also proposition for Auth::login method : replace this line : $login_ok = $this->storage->fetchData($this->username, $this->password); with this line : $login_ok = ($this->storage->fetchData($this->username, $this->password) === TRUE); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21113&edit=1
