Hi list,
To rgod: it would have been *very* nice to contact us before posting
this here...
The problem has been confirmed from release 0.9.9 up to 0.9.12-rc1, the
final 0.9.12 (which came out yesterday night) does fix the problem (+
another one of the same type introcuced in the 0.9.12 branch which was
found while auditing the code after the initial security hole had been
revealed).
All phpGraphy users are *HIGHLY* encouraged to upgrade to the latest
stable release -> 0.9.12
All apologies for this, we do take security very seriously and try our
best to keep phpGraphy as secure as possible.
Best regards,
