[PHP-DOC] fight spam in notes system
Hi, As you may have noticed, I've disabled the user notes entry system, because we were receiving more than 100 spam notes per day for two months. That's too much work.. I don't really want to enable the thing before fixing the problem with spam. We currently have a words blacklist plus a DNS check with two major on-line blacklists, but noone was filtering the spam. So we have to discuss our options: 1. delete all user notes :P 2. implement a captcha system on the mirrors 3. implement the captcha in the master server 4. ?? The implication of 2. is that the system would be hackable. Sending the spam directly to the master server would easily avoid the protection. The other problem is that the captcha that is on the bugs site requires gd. Other systems (such as phpBB registration image) don't require any extension, though. However it is licensed under GPL (we can not bundle it..) I vote on 3, as it's the safest mechanism. We simply put the master server generating the images and creating sessions to save the keys. The mirrors would just need to fetch the image and parse the http headers to get the php session id (that's easy with php = 4.3). So I ask you to propose other ideas, vote, whatever, so that we can enable the notes again. Thanks, Nuno
Re: [PHP-DOC] fight spam in notes system
Hi Nuno, 3. +1 I can think of two more solutions against it: 4. QI test, with a simple math calculus (maybe in a phrasal form what is the result of three plus for?) 5. An input that _can't_ be filled, if filled then the note is rejected: why ? Non-specific spam bots tend to fill everything, especially if the input is named importantly, lastname for example. We could also hide it using javascript to reduce cases when users accidentally fill it. That could work well against some bots. But of course a bot designed to spam php.net specifically will easily avoid both traps. -- Etienne Kneuss http://www.colder.ch/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm afraid a bit of this one, because it is damn too easy to crack.. A simple grammar will generate the correct answer. I think we can try it, but I bet it is cracked in one week or even less :) I'm currently busy studying, but I can develop something until the end of the week (unless someone wants to send a patch :) Nuno

[PHP-DOC] #37776 [Csd-Opn]: position of define() in source matters
ID: 37776 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: karibu at gmx dot net -Status: Closed +Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: MacOS X, MorphOS PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: colder New Comment: I reopen this bug as a consequence of Sean's comment (thanks for it). Will fix that ASAP. Previous Comments: [2006-06-11 08:53:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better. I believe it can't hurt anybody. http://patches.colder.ch/constants-1.43.patch?markup [2006-06-10 23:55:08] karibu at gmx dot net same happens w/o the exit too. anyway... of course I expect a different result in that case. It's very confusing for (e.g.) c programmers where that works just fine: int main(void) { printfoobar(); return 0; } #define FOO bar void printfoobar() { printf(FOO); } So it should be documented IMHO... a small extra sentence in the documentation doesn't hurt.. I think ;) [2006-06-10 23:27:16] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Would you expect this to work different somehow? ?php printfoobar(); exit; $FOO = 'bar'); function printfoobar() { echo $GLOBALS[FOO]; } ? I would not. Not only did you call the function before the define, but you exit() before the define. There is no way that is getting defined. [2006-06-10 23:12:17] karibu at gmx dot net Description: When I *call* a function which uses a define before this define is actually defined in the source it appears in the function to be undefined. I didn't found this behavoir documented (not in the english or german section) but it would probably very useful as it quickly can lead to unexpected problems w/o instantly possible to detect why (in a script of mine it caused busylooping f.ex.). Reproduce code: --- ?php printfoobar(); exit; define(FOO, 'bar'); function printfoobar() { echo FOO; } ? Expected result: bar Actual result: -- FOO -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37776edit=1
Re: [PHP-DOC] fight spam in notes system
im all for a captcha on the master server right now. the basic math idea might work though...could probably make it more complexed as time goes, randomize it a little. have maybe a few calculations in 1 go. but then again with most scripting languages it probably still wouldnt be hard to crack if you parsed number words as numeric with str_replace or something :) captcha on the master server is probably about as good as it gets for now...
