Re: Xoops 2.2.1 Full Path Disclosure

[sorry for the truncated post... stupid. fat. fingers.]

Man, I hate when people put this crap in as a bug in the software. From the PHP.ini file:
-----------------
; Print out errors (as a part of the output).  For production web sites,
; you're strongly encouraged to turn this feature off, and use error logging
; instead (see below). Keeping display_errors enabled on a production web site ; may reveal security information to end users, such as file paths on your Web
; server, your database schema or other information.
display_errors = On
------------------

There are clearly some issues to address in the XOOPS pages pointed out; no doubt there are some bugs to correct.

However, a path disclosure error in PHP is not an issue on a system which is configured for production (unless it comes directly from the software and not the PHP error reporting logic).

I understand the concern with path disclosure errors. However, it sounds a little too much like our excuse making industry is kicking in when we start blaming software for not fixing improperly configured systems.
