Bug description: Can set environment variables in the query string.
/* this is a security measure that only permits the display of the page if the referer
is within the same domain as the page... if you run it with HTTP_REFERER=HTTP_HOST or
a string of the host url in the query string or post a form input object called
HTTP_REFERER with value of host url, it produces the same effect as if you had clicked
on a link from within the site */

$referer = parse_url($HTTP_REFERER);
if($referer[host]!='mydomain.com') die ('invalid host');
else{echo '<html>this is my page!!</html>';
