Well i thought about changeing access levels into numbers so that only
LARGER numbers can access lower numbers and Lower numbers can't access
anything higher ... if that makes sence ...

So 3 can access 2 and 1,
2 can't access 3, but can access 2 and 1 and one can't access 2 or 3, but
can 1 ...

assuming that $siteAccessLevel is = to eather level-1, level-2 or level-3

  if ($slevel = $glevel) {

RE: [PHP] Hacker problem

2003-03-12 Thread Dennis Cole
If you are really that strict about it coming from you site, have your form
page create an image with five letter of number on it - like 4Y6O7. Have it
create a new one each time. Then use crypt to encrypt it and put the
encrypted one into a form value, have the person that is submitting the form
type that into a form box. After they submit it, crypt what they entered and
check it against the hidden variable.

This is almost full proof - using Mcrypt would be better. This is sorta what
you have to do when registering eith slashdot.

Hi,
I've done it via a ticket system
- into my form I've added field
input type=hidden name=ticket_to_ride value=32-byte long
generated ticket
- store the ticket number in database (optionally) with TimeToLive
- when POST comes, check ticket number with this stored in db
- if found and (optionally) within TTL, then you've got POST from your FORM
- then delete it from db - attacker must get fresh form with new ticket
and must do it within TTL
- ticket can be generated via MD5

another way is to add into your page JavaScript (I've seen somewhere)
version of MD5 routine and into hidden field add checksum of fields 
and on arrival revalidate it.

of course this is not bullet-proof, but this is way how to make it hard
for anybody to fake POST. You can make variations of this for example
interleave your form with different tickets and into db store only
checksum (MD5) of them, then it becomes nearly impossible to fake form.

hi

i am experiencing a major problem with sessions expiring randomly in some of
my
apps. i will log in and start clicking around and then i will eventually
arrive at a page that tells me that i'm not logged in anymore. this happens
apparently randomly. i have seen it on ie6, ie for mac, netscape 4.7 for pc,
and mozilla

the apps are hosted on

freebsd 4.7-release p2
apache 1.3.27
php version 4.2.3
compiled with --enable-trans-sid

i can't go into production if there's the possibility that users will be
randomly logged off. i went through all of my code over the weekend, and i
don't think i can attribute this to a miscoding:

when a user logs in, i create a session with

session_start();
$valid_user=$_POST['username'];
session_register(valid_user);

i have the following code at the top of each page to check to see if the
session
is valid:

session_start();
$valid_user=$_SESSION['valid_user'];
global $valid_user;
if (session_is_registered(valid_user)
{...function to spit out an error message if the session is not valid...;}

i have a logout page that destroys the session

session_start();
session_destroy();

i also have a javascript timer in the header of every page that redirects to
the
logout page if the user has been inactive for 20 minutes.

i have played around with session.gc_probability, setting it to 100, but
that
doesn't seem to have fixed the problem.

this is a huge problem.
if anyone can give some advice, i'd really appreciate it.

Importance: Low


It's possible you're being afflicted with the same problem I am.  See
the message just one or two above this about Sessions problem.  What I
found in my debugging is that it had to do with how I was
mix-and-matching the way I specified links.

Short version of the problem is that http://mysite.org/ has one session
and http://www.mysite.org/ has another.  In my code, I sometimes have
the links as a href=/page and sometimes it's explicit, as a
href=http://www.mysite.org/;.  So if a user went to the site as
http://mysite.org - the pages that used the explicit www.mysite.org
would fail.

So if there's anything in your pages/links that may change how the link
is referred, you may be have different sessions occuring.

I would imagine it should be pretty easy for you to debug whether or not
this is the problem.  Have each of your pages echo out the current
session id (echo 'session is '.session_id().'br';) and see if it
changes at any point, and especially on the pages that fail.

 Hi All,

 I'm trying to get a random record each time this script runs;
 Only it's giving me everytime the first record back.. No random at all..

 // generate and execute query
 $query = SELECT stedenid, naamstad, stadomschrijvk FROM steden

 $result = mysql_query($query) or die (Error in query: $query.

 $row = mysql_fetch_object($result);
 echo $row-naamstad;


 Version info;

 PHP 4.3.1
 Mysql 3.23.54

 When i'm trying to excute the SELECT statement in phpmyadmin; i'm
 only getting the first record back and when i'm taking off the
 LIMIT 1 it will display all the records in ascending order so
 also not in random..


 Regards,

 Frank


Frank

This really belongs on the MySQL list but there was a known issue with
RAND() on 3.23.54 - can you upgrade? If your table has an auto_increment ID
column then a workaround would be to use rand() in PHP to generate a random
ID then use that with a 'where id = '.$id in your query...

I thought perhaps

but if all session_start does is basically assign a session ID then
session_id will never be empty even when the write fails.
[snip]

You can't check since session write happens _after_ the execution of your
script. You could check if ini_get('session.save_path') is writable, or if
you are able to create a temp file with some contents on it, but that won't
tell you exactly if session writing will be successful - too many different
parameters:
- what will the size of your session file be?
- after your check, how many session files will be written by other
instances until it's your turn?
- the complete disk usage may change, since you're in a multi-user
multi-session environment...

Better: make a check if there's enough space left on the session.save_path,
on a regular basis (hint: cron job). Make this job either send you an
email, or delete orphaned session files (generate a listing and walk it by
last access date).

RE: [PHP] session_start

2003-02-23 Thread Dennis Cole
The manual is right, session_start should always return true. For example
using this code:

?php
$sess = session_start();

if ($sess = 1){
echo Session start returned TRUE;}

?

PHP is set to save to C:\tmp which does not exist. But, because session data
is not saved at the beginning of the page where the session_start is called,
but at the end there the script is through executing, the session_start
still worked. The saving did not.

This script would put out the following:

-


Warning: open(/tmp\sess_01ef33d269ce2ea08b2b8c8899375152, O_RDWR) failed: m
(2) in C:\apache\htdocs\blog\test.php on line 2
*** The above is PHP trying to obtain previous session data which it cannot
find.

Session start returned TRUE

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_01ef33d269ce2ea08b2b8c8899375152, O_RDWR) failed: m
(2) in Unknown on line 0

According to the PHP manual session_start always returns true.

Ther are times (like when there is a disk full error on the server) that the
sesison_start will fail because its unable to write the session tmp file.

So shouldnt session_start be able to return false if the file write fails?

Or does it return false but the manual doesnt say so?

and they all need to look like 46.00. Is there an easy way to do this.

it would be better if it will be chopped by words and not by characters. Any
idea how?

 Do you want it chopped at a certain number of words, or characters?

Subject: [PHP] ASCII/UNICODE Character Translation Comparison in Strings


Hello, I was wondering if there are any native PHP functions that will
acomplish what I have set out to do here:

I have an issue where I would need to compare international characters, for
instance i would want björk to match bjork, i would want ô,ö, and ò to
match o; ñ, Ñ to match n. etc...

I could just create a function that would do this, and I already have ideas
about how to go about this, but before i start coding, i want to make sure
there isn't something that PHP does already that could replace what i'm
trying to do here.

Thanks

(yes, i googled already) ;-)

RE: [PHP] SQL Query

There is a nice piece of software that you should get,

Subject: [PHP] SQL Query


I have a problem writing a query that can select a Interest for a specific
user... There are tvo tables, IList and IIndex...
IList contains this :
  ID  SubID  Interest  Valid
  Edit  Delete  1 0 Datorer 0
  Edit  Delete  2 1 Spel 0
  Edit  Delete  3 2 Strategi 0
  Edit  Delete  4 3 Star Craft 1
  Edit  Delete  5 3 Star Wars: Gallactic Battelinggrounds 1
  Edit  Delete  6 2 Shoot-Em-Up 0
  Edit  Delete  7 6 Half-Life 0
  Edit  Delete  8 7 Team Fortress 1
  Edit  Delete  9 7 Counter-Strike 1


And IIndex contains a UserID And InterestID... this query :
SELECT DISTINCTROW InterestsList.ID, InterestsList.SubID,
InterestsList.Interest, InterestsList.Valid FROM InterestsList AS II RIGHT
JOIN InterestsList ON InterestsList.ID=II.SubID LEFT JOIN InterestsIndex ON
InterestsList.ID=InterestsIndex.InterestID AND InterestsIndex.UserID='1'

Selects all rows from IList... even if there Is'nt any instans in IIndex...
this thougt is that a User can choose a Valid Interest and then the query
should select all SubInterests... anyone know how to do that ?

RE: [PHP] File upload problem

2003-02-10 Thread Dennis Cole
MAX_FILE_SIZE only tells the browser how large the file should be. This is
why the PHP manual page also says, The MAX_FILE_SIZE is advisory to the
browser. It is easy to circumvent this maximum. So don't count on it that
the browser obeys your wish! The PHP-settings for maximum-size, however,
cannot be fooled.

 You don't.

Hi Jason,
I remember reading it on the book PHP and MySQL Web development book
by Luke Welling and Laura Thompson. I just checked the book again, on
page 353, when explaining file upload it reads You must have a form
field that sets the maximum size file that can be uploaded. Then it
says The name of this form field must be MAX_FILE_SIZE.
Also in the PHP manual which can be seen at:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php, it reads:
 The _URL_ should point to a PHP file. The MAX_FILE_SIZE hidden field
must precede the file input field and its value is the maximum filesize
accepted. The value is in bytes.
Which sounds like it has to be there to me? I just checked a working
file upload form without MAX_FILE_SIZE field, and it worked.. I guess i
misunderstood what was on the tutorials ? Or i wonder if this was a must
in the earlier versions of PHP? Anyone?
And thanks for correcting me..
Gurhan

RE: [PHP] Avoiding several windows with the same session

If you are using cookies the new window will pick it up. Have the original
page change a variable to say that it has loaded then when the new window
loads have it check that variable first.

I place

session_start();
if (!session_is_registered('somevar'))
{
header('location: login.php');
exit();
}

at the top of all my pages to prevent people to view pages before they log
in. However, once thay have logged in succesfully, they can ctrl-U in IE to
open a new window. This new window 'inherits' the session id and hence it
does not redirects to the login page. Is there any way to avoid this
situation so that people cannot have several windows with the same session
open?

Thanks!
