Description Pavel Stratil 2013-10-01 08:46:23 UTC

Hi,

all, I'd like to propose using the https://github.com/NewEraCracker/suhosin-patches/blob/master/patches/suhosin-0.9.33.php55.diff patch to allow the current Suhosin build against php 5.5. Some distros (i.e. suse) out there have suhosin patched up as well, while others (debian) seem to have dropped it, even tough some features just get lost (function blacklisting, transparent cookie encryption, etc.)

Reproducible: Always

Hi, we have no plans of keeping support for suhosin. Too many were led to believe it added magically extra security to PHP.

If you need it, add it to an overlay.
