Package: php5-mysql Version: 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3 Severity: normal mysql extension for php5 package bypasses open_basedir restrictions due to the way libmysqlclient package is compiled.
Forcing the "--enable-local-infile" flag during compilation of libmysqlclient package causes the built-in protection in php5's mysql extension to malfunction allowing anyone to read files outside open_basedir. >From the limited research I did, there's no way to make this protection work properly unless the aforementioned compile flag is turned off. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ (charmap=ISO-8859-2) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
