Bug ID: 48906
Summary: tools cgi in user directories - add .cgi extension to
ExecCGI option
Product: Wikimedia Labs
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: tools
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
At the moment, the labs setup will execute .php and .py files in the user's
public_html directory, but not .cgi files.
There seems to be no security advantage to this, because a file named .py can
be any kind of executable file, and the webserver will still execute it.
For those who program in other languages, a neutral extension such as .cgi
would be preferable to .py .
