Marthe,
How was the script executed and under what user privileges? Was it executed
by a client from a browser or was it executed directly from the command
line?
PHP is a server-side scripting language (that can also be configured to
execute as a standalone language). Your clients should not be
This is not PHP problems but it's a programming problems.
Just paste your code here and remove the original one on you site.
Many people here will help.

Marthe, if you post the script we can all get to the bottom of this pretty
quickly. You have a lot of expertise here ready to help. Just copy and
paste it into your email.
BTW, you should remove it from your site before you post it, if at all
possible.
Good luck.

So you wrote a script that took a filename as an argument somehow and did
something with it? That's always going to be insecure unless you do a lot
of error checking on it.

So you wrote a script that took a filename as an argument somehow and did
something with it? That's always going to be insecure unless you do a lot
of error checking on it.

Not much to go on here. Basically don't do whatever it was you did. And
yes, understanding the environment you are working in, both the OS and PHP
and whatever
Hey Marthe,
Do you know what he did? The problem may not have been a "PHP" problem
as much as a design or security issue...if you could include some code,
or tell us what he actually did, we might be able to explain a) why its
a problem or b) why its not a PHP issue...
best regards,
jack

yes, understanding the environment you are working in, both the OS and PHP
and whatever 3rd party stuff you hook PHP up to is the first step to
