I've investigated this issue. The vast majority of the mentioned 'attacks'
evidently only possible through register_globals, and the one about
'create' is very vague and not reproducible for me.

register_globals is in 2014 no longer anything that anyone should still be
running, and is explicitly marked as unsupported for many releases now.
Add to this that these kinds of tools are not normally operated by
untrusted users or exposed to the internet.

I'm downgrading the bug for now. It would be nice if the maintainer could
comment on it.


Cheers,
Thijs
