[PHP] database connection pool
Hello, My name is Khai. I am new to PHP. I am well versed with mod_perl and apache. With mod_perl, I can use Apache::DBI to cache database connections. Is there a module for PHP that does the same thing ? Thank you, Khai -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] equivalent of perl's ithread
As of perl 5.6, perl has a concept of interpreter thread (called ithread). Basically, any variable that you want to be shared across threads, you have to explicitly shared it. This apply not only to regular variables, but also apply to super global variables such as $_, making it easy to write threadsafe modules in perl. Does PHP has an equivalent concept? If I am developing php pages that are to be run under apache2 threaded worker mpm, can I use $_SERVER variable ?

[PHP] Possible hacker using php script to send e-mails?
Hi there, I am running php 4.x on a suse 9.x machine. There is a php script which resides on a webapp that is responsible for sending e-mail to myself in case of errors like db-errors or similar. Called error.php This script does include phpmailer and uses it to send the e-mails to me. Now I am receiving on the e-mail specified as TO: e-mails with different subject than specified and different text?! All english text with wired sentences, must be a bot or so. How is this possible? The subject line is fixed and right after that commend send is executed. So no idea how they do it and how I can prevent it. It looks like this: $mail->Subject = 'Fehlerbericht'; $mail->Send(); How is it possible that they change this subject line? I checked the server log and each time an e-mail has been sent to me of that kind there is a logentry in apache log that says that this script has been executed. So the e-mails definatelly come from that script?! Can anybody help? Regards, Merlin -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

So the e-mails definatelly come from that script?! If you are setting message headers with untrusted values that may contain line breaks, that is your problem. Line breaks make mail systems interpret the next line as a new header. That header may be used to inject new recipients for instance using Bcc: . You can have line breaks in header but you need to escape them properly so they are interpreted as continuation lines rather than new headers. You may want to take a look at this class that can encode header values to make line breaks be interpreted as continuation lines, so they cannot be abused by spammers: http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage -- Regards, Manuel Lemos Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.metastorage.net/ PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] recommendations for good breacrumbs script
Hello, I am looking around for a good PHP breadcrumbs navigation script that would out put a path based on file structure. For instance if I had a folder called Portfolio and within that folder I had a index.php file and another file called Websites.php. When I was on the websites.php page, the breadcrumbs path would display Home >> Portfolio >> Websites and Home and Portfolio would be hyperlinks. I don't want the breadcrumbs to display a .php extension. I could of course hard code this, but would rather find an automated solution.

I wrote this script quite a while ago (in PHP3.0, if I recall
correctly); it could probably stand to be cleaned up, but it works OK.
You can tell it the URL path you'd like referenced as the top level
of the trail, the default separator (in your case, '>>'), any
extra attributes you want in your A HREF tag, and what file names it
should ignore. By default, it ignores anything starting with index -
eg index.php, index.html. It also replaces underscores with spaces in
the current directory/filename, and uppercases the resulting words.
Of course, you could remove/alter that functionality if you want.
Hope that email client linewraps don't muck it up too badly...

That is what I said, sending headers with untrusted values, so people have to use the 4th argument to set for instance the From: header. This From: header is often set to values set in forms to the e-mail address and name of the person that is trying to contact the site people. That is usually from where most the PHP mail form abuses come from. As I said line breaks in the From: or other headers are not invalid. Actually line breaks should be used to comply with RFC recommendations and do not exceed the 78/998 line length limit. When these limits are exceeded, messages may arrive corrupted. The mail function is a better than nothing solution. It can still be used but to send RFC compliant messages, often it is necessary to correctly format message contents. That is why I always recommend this or other class that takes care of those (many) details: http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage -- Regards, Manuel Lemos Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.metastorage.net/ PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
