There are third-party sites that send out security alerts for

 I have subscribed to their mailings myself over the years, and found
 them to be a pretty reliable resource --- some underground public
 groups are particularly useful for zero-day vulnerabilities.

I've been on Bugtraq for years, and have found it to be very useful (if a bit 
noisy).  It's heavily moderated, but there's still so much software out there 
that it can get a few dozen emails a day.

http://www.securityfocus.com/ about halfway down the page fill in your email 
address, and then check off the Bugtraq list in the bottom half.

 I've been trying to find a solution for decoding barcode images in PHP but 
 haven't had much luck so far.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm not familiar with a way to do it directly in PHP, but you could shell out 
to something like zbar to do it.

Thanks.  This seems to reinforce that there's something wrong, but I don't feel 
like I know any more about what's broken. :)

[PHP] XML enabled but not working

2011-09-15 Thread Matthew Pounsett

I seems to behaving issues with php5 on one particular server, and I haven't 
been able to find the issue.  Basically, php says XML is enabled, but xml 
functions are missing.

 php -i | grep XML support
libXML support = active

 echo ? print xml_parser_create(''); ? | php
Fatal error: Call to undefined function xml_parser_create() in - on line 1

The machine in question is FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE running the most recent ports of 
php5 and expat.

 php -v
PHP 5.3.8 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Sep 15 2011 13:58:49) 
Copyright (c) 1997-2011 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2011 Zend Technologies

 sudo portversion -v expat
expat-2.0.1_2   =  up-to-date with port 

What's baffling is that this is a basically identical configuration to another 
server where php is behaving just fine.  I haven't been able to find the 
variation yet.  

Anyone have any thoughts on what to look at?
