Thanks Rasmus, we are using wordpress. Looking at code:
find . -type f -exec grep realpath {} \; I see a lot of: if ( function_exists('realpath') ) $path = realpath($path); if ( function_exists('realpath') ) $path = realpath($path); if ( function_exists('realpath') ) $path = realpath($path); if ( realpath($path) == $path ) if ( !is_null($dest_path) and $_dest_path = realpath($dest_path) ) What do you think if I disable such function?
