On my Fedora 12 server, searching for 'proc/self/environ' I found the following in my apache log files: www.php-debuggers.net 66.179.32.5 - - [21/Aug/2010:18:56:10 +0100] "GET /file.php?file []=../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../proc/self/environ%00 HTTP/1.1" 404 352 They didn't get much though, except a 404 error message.
