Operating system: linux
PHP version:      4.0CVS-2001-09-12
PHP Bug Type:     Session related
Bug description:  static path in php and mm

php (from 4.0.6 and the latest cvs code), has PS_MM_PATH 
statically defined in ext/session/mod_mm.c.

This, coupled with hardcoding of only an extension in 
libmm.so, allows for a very easy DOS on systems that use 
session management for at least cgi and external binary 
placements for php, and quite possibly module installation.

Is it produceable? sure.. touch /tmp/session_mm.sem (if 
using php and mm)
