Geeklog Forums

[QUOTE A message from my ISP]
To enhance your security we will be disabling the PHP functions "proc_open", "system", "cmd", "shell_exec" (aka "backticks"), and "passthru". The majority of applications written in PHP do not use these functions and will not lose any functionality when this happens.

They gave me time till Monday, October 10th to opt out for the removal of any of these functions.

So does Geeklog belong to the moral majority?

Geeklog itself doesn't use any of those functions. Can't speak for all the plugins and add-ons, of course.

Inmemoriam's use of Pear makes use of a couple of those especially for dealing with ImageMagick.

Which exactly (for Inmemoriam)?

Also, what about "popen"? This time they offer to easily block it, but don't actually block it by default because...

passthru, exec, and system if I remember correctly--all used by the pear image transform package included with Inmemoriam.
