I don't know whether this has any security implications. If so, I wouldn't be too surprised. Anyway, I don't know the reason for this nonsense, but it needs to be stopped. 30 spurious file system calls for every SQL command is really pushing it. (Assuming that the typical SQL statement has two string parameters.) -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (650, 'unstable'), (600, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages php-mdb2 depends on: ii php-pear 5.3.8.0-1 php-mdb2 recommends no packages. php-mdb2 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
