Does anyone else see anything missing from the list of "Affected Products?" Like anything from Redmond, Washington, USA? Hmmmmmmm...? This list looks like a whole lotta bullshite! I work with M$, Linux and Mac OS-X on a daily basis. I am a certified Cisco Networking Instructor. This is pure fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Windows has been known for YEARS to have numerous PHP exploits that they will NOT patch because it would disrupt one of their "features." The IT guy's servers most likely have numerous php scripts running on them now if he has anything like an intraweb running. The only thing a Mac person can do in this situation is move his Mac off the network. You will not change this guy's mind. Peace, Dennis in Victoria

Friend of mine got this email from his strictly PC IT manager, blaming him for 
an attack on his network via my mates Power Mac (which is on the network).

I can't really help him, but knowing you guys, someone will know what's going 
on.

This IT guy is very, very anti Mac.

Asterisks are mine.

Any advice please.

PHP is a widely deployed scripting language, designed for web based development 
and CGI programming. PHP does not perform proper bounds checking on in 
functions related to Form-based File Uploads in HTML (RFC1867). Specifically, 
this problem occurs in the functions which are used to decode MIME encoded 
files. As a result, it may be possible to overrun the buffer used for the 
vulnerable functions to cause arbitrary attacker-supplied instructions to be 
executed. PHP is invoked through webservers remotely. It may be possible for 
remote attackers to execute this vulnerability to gain access to target 
systems. A vulnerable PHP interpreter module is available for Apache servers 
that is often enabled by default.
