Hi there, I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the difference is between PHP 4.2.1 and 4.2.3?? I am already aware of the POST exploit (http://online.securityfocus.com/archive/1/283533/2002-07-19/2002-07-25/0) in 4.2.1. How easy is it to actually expoloit this bug? Are there any other differences (I looked around the php site but couldn't find anything to tell me what the differences are - if there is somewhere just please point me to it)?
The reason I ask is that we are trying to run PHP 4.2.3 through IPlanet 6SP5 on Solaris, but it keeps crashing on the db_return function (and the webserver reboots). According to the IPlanet docs, IPlant runs fine with PHP 4.2.1, so we want to downgrade, but I want to ensure that we're not using anything in our app that relies on special 4.2.3 functionality. If anyone can comment on the whole IPlanet/Solaris thing (I've already read all the stuff in the php docs about installing PHP on Solaris and I followed the instructions faithfully) I would also appreciate that.
