Recently, I've stumbled across SecureReality web site, and found a few interesting discussions about security in PHP apps...

Take a look at these two links:
A Study In Scarlet - Exploiting Common Vulnerabilities in PHP Applications
Remote command execution vulnerabilities in phpMyAdmin and phpPgAdmin

Arr. Crap.. Now I need to re-write my script.

I'm writing a news post script but...

Some of the information there went over my head, but by doing this will my script should be secure right?

  • Everything in the script happens through a function() call.
  • All variabules passed from the form are only used in function() calls.
  • There are NO global variabules.
  • All username and password variabules are checked on an equality basis, if false, a die() is called. If true the script continues to run.
  • All database connections and includes only happen inside defined functions.



That should pretty much work shouldn't it?
