PHP Security: Revision 5

Oxymoron, right? Well for somebody who loves perl so much, it is. Anyway here it is...

Contents


One-liners

show phpinfo from shell

echo '<? phpinfo() ?>' | php5

Security scanning

Spike PHP Security Audit Tool

http://developer.spikesource.com/projects/phpsecaudit/

sudo apt-get install php5-xslt

Small list of checked expressions, quite difficult to browse.

Pixky

http://pixybox.seclab.tuwien.ac.at/pixy/

Enables taint analysis of code. Doesn't handle ISO-8859-2 chars well, and breaks with terrifing error, but it's a very promising tool (in Java, sigh)

phc

http://www.phpcompiler.org/

Great tool to get php's AST tree. Used by Plumhead
