As a sometime ADM2 and GUI instructor (Progress Canada) and client coding demagogue, [...]your book [Coding Smart] has given me further substance and makes me stand out even in the eyes of my peers. Michael Lonski's new book should cost 10 times more than it does! I am very impressed. I love the format and context. Very well done!"

    Due to an insecure directory listing implementation, the scripts...

  • osCommerce Online Merchant v2.3.2

    osCommerce Online Merchant v2.3.2 is a security improvement release which improves the customer password forgotten routine and generation of random strings.

    Previously, the customer password forgotten routine would automatically generate a random password and e-mail it to the customer. The code was based on tep_create_random_value(), the PHP mt_rand() function, and a weak seeding of the random number generator. Now, tep_create_random_value() uses Phpass' stronger get_random_bytes() method to generate random strings, and the customer password forgotten routine e-mails a personal link to the customer and gives them 24 hours to change their password. If they do not, they can continue to use their...
