ID: 10091 Updated by: cynic Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Old-Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: *General Issues Assigned To: Comments: 1) you don't need mysql for this. any error message contains full path to the script. 2) this will only happen with display_errors on, which is _not_ recommended for production sites. 3) I don't think the zillions of PHP coder out there would be grateful if this authoring/debugging convenience disappeared. 4) you can always write your own error handler that won't give out the path. => bogus Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-31 09:35:34] [EMAIL PROTECTED] at the bugtraq yesterday: I've found a bug in php/MySQL that can show u the webroot path. If u ask a non-existent file: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/comments.php?file=.3425 server's answer is: Warning: 0 is not a MySQL result index in /www/lc/linstart/www/other_languages/german/comments.php on line 74 I don't know if it's xploitable, I dont'know MySQL. Let's xploit it!! Darko -------------- But this: This will only happen if you have NOT turned off the error reporting in the php.ini file. If you turn it off, and log the errors to a file you will not get this. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
