Would you agree that the attached patch fixes the vulnerability? Using a list of known-good-characters would be nice, but dot happens to be a valid character in a list name.The php webinterface is a third-party development for mlmmj but part of the official release.I know that this is just semantics, but... While it is true that the mlmmj-php-admin web interface is distributed along with mlmmj, it is not a part of mlmmj itself, but is located in the contribs directory.Thanks for bringing this up. I haven't used the mlmmj-php-admin in years, but from looking at the patch that was proposed by Morten, I think it fixes the issues and should be shipped! Who is taking care of commiting this to mlmmj? Is there any embargo involved?
I haven't looked at it yet, but if you and Morten are both happy with it, I'm sure it'll be good enough for me. I will commit it shortly and it will appear in the next release. Smiles, Ben.
