Georg, our security section has a link to that CERT
advisory for quite a long time now. I have added a
warning and a link to the particular security page
to that setup instruction page for Apache windows.

Please give better instructions for CGI setups
under windows if you can. A setup, where PHP
sritps are portable, so no #!c:\php\php.exe type
of method is doable...

Maybe James can find another way. The Apache doc
only documents the methods we have in the install
and security chapters...

Actually, our documentation tells win32 users to install that way. I'm
investigating a better method right now, and will patch the
documentation in a short while.

I knew i forgot to do something after i updated my win32 last week!

Unbelievable, why do you set your cgi-binary in the document root
tree!?

See http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-1996-11.html

Well you should have already heard about this but I'll report it anyway
becoz we all need a fix very fast! Well when you do this:
http://www.example.com/php/php.exe?c:\winnt\repair\sam   (this is an
example, you can view any file) it will return the files contents! This
happens with ANY windows versions...i don't think it affects linux. Also
this will return the install path of PHP:
http://www.example.com/php/php4ts.dll
could you please get a path/new vesion out ASAP! This is extremly
serious!
