It's your fault if you pass user input as-is forward to any PHP/your own function/etc. Definately NOT PHP bug.

Some scripts need a directory name for user. They may enter '/www/somedir /usr/bin/wget ...' and command '/usr/bin/wget somethinghere' will be executed on the server without problems! It happens when php calls unix command mkdir. Regards, Flashman ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25315&edit=1
